The Hope of America!

Jax just finished 6th grade and will never again be in Elementary School. He is an amazing person and an outstanding student. I am so grateful to even know him let alone be his mother. It is a choice blessing to have him in our family. At the end of the year the teachers held an awards ceremony for the 6th graders. Jax received the most awards out of all the students. Including the gold award in academics for having straight A's all year long, safety patrol, ledger party, attendance, and the presidential fitness award. He was also the school mascot this year and received a trophy for being the best bulldog;) The last award given to the students was The Hope of America award. It is given to the boy and girl in 6th grade who are the best all around student. It involves being a friend, leader, example, giving service, and outstanding academics. The teachers actually cried when giving this award. Jax was the boy chosen. I am so proud of him! I love him so much. Jax and his teacher Mr. Cleveringa

That is so great. I agree that he is a great kid and am proud to call him my nephew. He deserves all those awards. I love that I am related to "The hope of America."
