On Tuesday night, we had the pleasure of watching Natalie be inducted into the National Elementary Honor Society. This is a first for Coleman Elementary, having newly been selected as a charter member. This is exciting both for our school and for Nat! She and 31 other students became members based on their grades since 3rd grade/second quarter, their good citizenship, and a willingness to help their fellow students and staff.
Natalie, along with 2 of her friends, Grace and Carley, were featured in the Midland Daily News, page A3 (today's edition). They looked very cute, of course.
It was a fun night of celebration, and a real boost of motivation for our little school. These kids who are exceptional students deserve to be recognized, and I'm so glad our school is a part of this. The kids on the way up have something new to strive for!
They will be involved in community projects, which have not been decided upon just yet. I am looking forward to watching Natalie excel in all she sets out to do!
