Principal's Recognition Night

Mike, Maysen and I went to the Principal's Recognition Night.  They had some dessert first, then the program afterwords.  The program lasted awhile.  It was nice to have academics awarded though.  They called up everyone who had a 3.9 or 4.0 grade point average through all four years.  I was surprised.  There were only 33 people with a 3.9 and 13 people with a 4.0.  I thought there would have been more than that. They said a little bit about each person.  The assistant principal assigned to each student handed out the awards.  The guy handing out Maysen's called her by the right name the first time, then the rest of the time he was talking about her he called her 'Madison'.  Oh well.  It's weird how when people mess up Maysen's name they almost always call her Madison.

Maysen also received the Hawk Medallion Award.  She had earned enough 'points' by doing various things that she earned this.  82 people earned this award.  There were two other things Maysen was noted for in the program.  Earning her Honors Diploma and the Utah Scholars Initiative.  I had no idea what that was, but it is basically the things she needs to do for the Regents Scholarship.

Poor kids that were there just for the honors or advanced diploma. They had a long ceremony to sit through!
