Hunter Graduates from Elementary School

Hunter graduated from 5th grade and is excited but a little nervous about starting 6th grade in the Middle School. 5th grade was fun for him. He studied hard and ended the year with mostly "A's" but there were a few "B's"in there as well. His class had the "Great American Challenge" which required him to learn and name past and present presidents, the Gettysburg Address, the Star Spangle Banner, the Preamble to the U.S. Constitution, and all of the states and their capitals. I was very proud of him being able to accomplish this and even though I hate to admit it, I don't remember those things. He received a trophy for completeing the challenge which he was proud to show off. He also completed and graduated from the D.A.R.E. program this year. He learned a lot of things this past year, had good teachers, made some great friends and had a lot of fun. Hey...is his cap on backwards???
