Congratulations Evo Child!

I received notification today from the Kansas Educational Assessment Program (yes, the Kansas Board of Education is considering ID as a scientific alternative to evolution, :eek: :bugeye:).

Anyway, I wanted to tell her how proud I am that she was rated "EXEMPLARY" in the latest assessment which was in reading. Exemplary is the highest rating.

Exemplary: Understanding and application of knowledge and skills are consistently observed across a diverse set of complex and non-routine problem situations. Command of concepts and integration of information is all but automatic. Work is superior and thinking is efficient, but comprehensive and reasoned. Consistency and flexibility characterize access to and appropriate use of information. Performance is unquestionably at the highest level.

Thank you BT!

As her mom, I am hoping everyone will chime in so that I can properly embarrass her when I send her here. I can hear her now - "mommy! Why did you do that?!? "

ah, there are so few real pleasures in life. :-p

CONGRATULATIONS! You must be very proud (not that you aren't already).

As a reward, you have to take her to... oh... I don't know... Disney World? :)

Evo child: I'd like to extend my sincerest CONGRATULATIONS for rising to the top, being the creme de la creme, the cat's meow and the bees knees. Exemplary? EXAMPLARY?? That is FANTASTIC! OUTSTANDING! And in Kansas no less, where education isn't always the straightest course, yet you found your way through to TOP HONORS!

You keep on doing what you're doing, Evo child, you're one bright blazing star!

No, although I understand that even the "advanced" level requires completion of the book "Go, Dog. Go!" in less than an hour. So this is pretty awesome. :biggrin:

I must say she has received national honors in science and some recognition in math, which is unusual (she hates math).

Also, my older daughter graduated from high school with a 4.0 gpa. (I didn't forget you sweetheart :smile: )

Considering the 6 cross country moves we made and an ugly divorce and custody battle, these kids came out ok. I had nothing to do with it.

Certainly the Evo daughters are quite accomplished - but they do have a great mom, who did have a lot to do with it. :approve: :smile:

FANTASTIC?! OUTSTANDING?! Heck, that's AWESOMETASTIC, Evo child! :biggrin:

:rolleyes: uhh, but you, being the exemplary reader, might choose a different adjective.

I can say for certain, that every teacher who sees "Child of Evo" on their list for next year's classes is giving themself a small cheer (at least). Just as every poor student drags the whole class down a bit, every great student pulls the whole class up a bit. "Child" is a gift to every teacher she gets. I hope the teachers deserve her.

I highly doubt that also. The single most... (repeat) the SINGLE MOST dependable correlation of success at school for any child is the level of education of the mother
