Terrific Kid

There is a special recognition at Jackson's school called Terrific Kid. I think it is for the whole district. Each teacher chooses one child a month to recognize for their "terrific" characteristics. These are: thoughtful, enthusiastic, respectful, responsive, inclusive, friendly, inquisitive, and capable. Jackson was chosen as March's Terrific Kid for Ms. B's class. Here is what she wrote about Jackson: "I have chosen Jackson as my March Terrific Kid. He is an outstanding student and a true leader in the classroom. He has a heart of gold and compassion for others. His ways to think outside of the box amaze me everyday. Jackson is an all-around wonderful boy and he definitely deserves to be honored for his hard work!" We are so proud of him! On Friday, we went to the cafeteria with the other parents and siblings and watched Jackson get his award. It is a suprise to the children, and that morning, they wait in their class as the Terrific Kids are announced throughout the school on the loud speaker. Jackson was very suprised and so proud of himself! We are too!

Also, while we were walking through the school, Jackson was able to show us his self portrait! Good job buddy!
