Finished With 2nd Grade!

So we are finished with 2nd grade! It has been an incredible year. We have loved having Mrs. Hurst as Jackson's teacher, and he has thrived under her! He made A-B Honor roll all year, got into the gifted program for 3rd and 4th grades, and earned the Athletic Award for the 2nd year in a row in his class. This was Jackson's last year at his school, and he will be moving to Intermediate school next year. Say what you will about public school, but we have had nothing but positive and amazing things to say about his 3 years at Coosada! We have had absolutely incredible teachers, and Jackson and I have loved them all! I interviewed Jackson on the first day of school, and again today to see how his opinions changed. Here are his answers from the beginning of school:
