I wasn't crying. Really I wasn't. ;) I shut myself in my room, and let it all go. It was a flood of emotions. I was proud of Mica! At the same time I was scared for the boy's future. I was sad that Mica won't be starting high school in a building, making new friends. Usually I'm getting ready for school. Since 2002 August meant school was starting for me. I had Mica the second day of school August 10, 2005. This year I'm not a teacher. I lost my job in May. I just got word that the college I worked for will close. How could they possibly stay open, when all of high school is remote. All understandable. If universities and community colleges are hurting, technical and art school are really struggling!
With all the craziness in the world right now, what is something that has been the hardest on you?
Mica said, "Mom don't take a picture, when they get here!" Oh I wanted to!
The councilors don't even know how much I appreciate them dropping off this piece of paper to my son. He got all A's and one B+ last semester. He did everything he was supposed to do; even though they weren't grading his work.

Congrats, Mica! He deserves this award with the amount of integrity he has. I am sure a lot of kids skipped their work if it wasn't being graded, but he forged ahead. This kid will be going places!
I think it's wonderful he's doing so well. The kids who work even if they aren't being graded are few and far between. Kudos to him for great work ethic and choosing to be responsible.
Congratulations to Mica!
