My 16 year old daughter won
« on: June 10, 2010, 07:50:52 PM »
Student of the year in Digital Arts today. The school she goes to has a special digital arts program that kids from other schools transfer so they can be in the program. My daughter transferred too and had to get approval to do so from the head of the program. She had to show her previous year grades and also get her last year art teacher's recommendation.

She got to go on stage in front of the whole school to accept her award. She was so excited.

No, my friends, there’s only one really progressive idea. And that is the idea of legally limiting the power of the government. That one genuinely liberal, genuinely progressive idea — the Why in 1776, the How in 1787 — is what needs to be conserved. We need to conserve that fundamentally liberal idea. That is why we are conservatives. --Bill Whittle

That's excellent news. Sounds like it took a lot of work. Give her a "congratulations" from me, please. She should be proud of herself.

THANK YOU for what you do!

Grats BEG, Cali ain't all bad.    :innocent:
“The national budget must be balanced. The public debt must be reduced; the arrogance of the authorities must be moderated and controlled. Payments to foreign governments must be reduced, if the nation doesn't want to go bankrupt. People must again learn to work, instead of living on public assistance.”

My daughter's last day of school was today.  She found out today that besides getting Student of the Year in the "Digital Arts & Humanities Program", she also was recognized for the 2nd quarter for her project in digital arts and humanities called "The Industrial Revolution" and her 3rd quarter digital arts and humanities project "Totalitarian Photomontage".  She also got a 105 on her Algebra 2 final.  

Just thought I would brag.

Oh and for those of you who responded and help me with my other daughter with GATE (Gifted and Talented), I sent back the permission form for her to be in the GATE program.  I had a long talk with her and she agreed to "give it a go".
