Hurray for Maren!

Maren is the Hope of America! I knew she was sweet and brilliant, but now I have proof!

The Hope of America award is sponsored by the Kiwanas Club in Pocatello and honors 6th graders they feel are leaders in their schools. Each 6th grade teacher gets to choose 1 boy and 1 girl from their classroom. They have to have high grades, show integrity, and demonstrate teamwork with their classmates. Maren is definitely a good student (straight A's for 3 years!), and I'm always impressed that my shy little daughter will stand up for other students even though it scares her to death! She is a peacemaker and an all-around good kid! Congratulations, Maren! We're so proud of you!
