Little Superstar Citizens!!!

I was very happy to attend the kindergarten super citizen assembly or the kinder awards assembly at Heather's school. What parent would not be proud and excited to witness his/her child receive an award for doing well in school? Song and dance performances by the children were cute and sweet, but they seemed to be going on for eternity as I patiently await for the actual presentation of the awards!

Heather received her "15-week" super citizen ribbon and a pencil grip for being a super citizen for 20 weeks. She had received the 10-week certificate from an earlier assembly that I did not attend. It's nice that nearly everyone, if not everyone received an award. Then mysteriously in high school the athletes receive over-recognition, even those that do not have stellar academic achievement. It is very heartwrenching that many students do not receive positive acknowledgement and awards for excellent scholastic performance and/or being a well-behaved student.

There's Heather returning to her line after eagerly picking up her awards from the principal.
