Great Grade Eight Grad

 This evening was Grade 8 Graduation at Calvin Park Public School.  Here's Allison in her new dress.

                                                             Getting ready to go.

                                                           With Grandma and Dad.

                                                              With Mom and Dad.

  With her grade 8 homeroom teacher, Mike Depew.                      Proudly wearing her medal.

Allison received the Burgess-Davidson Literacy Award for the student in the Challenge program who demonstrated excellence in writing.  We were very surprised and proud when her name was announced, although her teacher had already told her she might receive an award.  We're very proud of Allison:  she's a great student, a sweet girl, and a wonderful daughter.
