And the Oscar goes to...

Rachel Roylance for her role as Betsy Ross in Mrs. Lawson's 5th grade class play on American History. Rachel did such a good job, I was so very proud of her. At the middle of the year, Rachel had her teacher retire (kind of a shocker - at ticked off this parent a little bit), but that teacher was back to watch today. She came up to Rachel and remarked how much Rachel had grown over the year. It the first play they did this year, Rachel looked at the floor a lot and you could barely hear her. The second play they did in the middle of the year, Rachel did a little better, but flubbed a line at the end - and broke down in tears. Today, she was a star, and her teacher told her so. She had to enter on stage while singing "You're a grand ole' flag", solo, and then having the class join in after the first couple of lines. She did fantastic.
She hated her 'scratchy' costume she had to wear, especially since she got a sunburn yesterday at field day. She looks cute with her new shorter hair cut.
Good Job Rachel!
