Charlie is officially a High Schooler

Graduation was lovely. I didn't cry quite as much as I thought I would, but it was a close thing. He got two awards! One from the Mark Newbie PTA - that was his grade school. Every elementary school picked two students who had gone to that school and awarded them for outstanding achievement, and Charlie won. He got a certificate and $50.00!

Then he got the Presidential Award for Academic Excellence. He got that after the 5th grade too, but this time it's signed by a president I actually like.

The principal of the High School welcomed them as the class of 2015. THAT made me cry.

That's fantastic! I am amazed that there's still a link between grade school and ( if i've got the right term) Junior High. I hope high school goes well for you both!
