The award Meghan received today turned out to be from the state for recognition of her score on the FCAT assessment test given this past March. Only two kids in Meghan's class received recognition for their testing and only about 20 students from the entire 4th grade. In order to receive the award certificate from the state you had to score a 5 on either the reading or the right portion. The possible score range is from 1 to 5 with a 5 being the best score. While a 4 is considered to be exceptional, the only scores that receive recognition are the 5s. Hopefully this will encourage these kids to continue to strive to do well and not but unnecessary stress. We are so proud of her and her accomplishments.
Unfortunately we did not get a picture of Meghan because with a last name that far down the alphabet she was one of the last called and was behind the drape on the stage:( We do have a picture outside her classroom but it is not very good because she was being very silly:) I will post it this weekend if it is not to ridiculous.
