This year our school is doing something a little different with our "Character of the Month," program. Each early release day we are holding a school wide assembly. The teachers choose their Character of the Month ahead of time and send a secret letter home inviting the parents to the assembly. The students are then surprised at the assembly. They play loud music and have colorful lights going and all of us teachers make a tunnel for them to run through while everyone is cheering for them. Today was our first assembly and Lindsey was chosen as the Character for her 4th grade class. Mark was able to get a sub for the morning and be there! Lindsey was a little suspicious when she came into the assembly and saw her Daddy there. I told her it was because he knew that Mommy had to perform in the teacher skit at the assembly and he came to make fun of her! I think she bought it! She seemed very surprised when they showed her picture on the big screen and called her name! We are so proud of Lindsey and her great character!
