Student of the Month

A couple weeks back I got a call that started like this, “Hi Mrs. Johnson, this is Mr. Whitaker, the principal here at Mountain Ridge Junior High, and I have Megan Johnson here in my office…” My first reaction would normally be that of concern, but since I know Megan all too well, I knew it couldn’t be bad. He went on to talk about how all the teachers got together as a group and voted her in as Student of the Month for the the whole 8th grade. He assured me that it was a big deal and quite a lot of time and effort goes into making this decision. He then read me some of the quotes that her teachers had written about her (see below).

As a parent, it is pretty wonderful to get this kind of news. We are really proud of Megan around our house. She is such a devoted, kind, hard-working gal and boy do we love her! Way to go Megs!
