Each year, the school gives out a special award to one student, chosen for showing humility, empathy and leadership. Well, we were VERY surprised and very VERY proud when they awarded this to Chris last night. Not that we don't think he deserves it, more for the fact that he has only been in the school for just over a year, and so to prove to them the type of person he is in this short a time span, just goes to show the type of person he REALLY is :)
We're very proud :)
He won this award in elementary school too - it was called the Jennifer Burke award there and it was awarded to him there for the same reasons. I am glad he has stayed true to himself throughout the Junior High years when so many students go off the rails, get bored and get into trouble.
