Today, I’m a proud momma just in time for Wordless Wednesday…

—– EDIT @ 1659 —–

When K1 saw this post, he pointed out that the blurb below the highlighed part makes it seem as if my son might have a reading deficiency! Ack! The statement is actually just something that is posted on each student’s report card, and reads “As stated in the FL state statutes, if a student’s reading deficiency is not remediated by the end of Grade 3, the student must be retained unless he or she is exempt from mandatory retention for good cause.“

In fact, my son always scores above average in reading and comprehension. On his final report (the part of the picture you can’t even see) it says that his Reading Common Assessment for March/April should be >=17, and his score is 23.

I’m so proud… and a bit bewildered that he’s already a THIRD GRADER! How did that happen!?!?!

I forgot he was a second grader!! How did his year go?

My son is going into 3rd grade as well! I can’t believe it!
What is The Kidlet’s lexile score? That’s a biggie in public school!

Yup, he finished his last day yesterday (and I’m a bad mommy for not getting around to looking at his report card until today!)

Believe it or not, this year he had a longer than usual year. Our county STARTED school late (the 3rd week of August instead of the first, as usual) so they are ENDING later. Personally, I’d rather his school year be from after Labor Day until mid-June but…
