Ava's Accomplishments



It's been quite the school year for our Ava, and we're only halfway through it. Already, she has won an essay contest, an art contest (and will next compete at the state level), she tested into the gifted program at her school (99th percentile across the board), she's testing at a sixth grade reading level, she's played soccer, had two piano recitals, a first grade performance and organized a bake sale that raised $713 for the Newtown Memorial Fund. We're so proud of our girl, her accomplishments, her kind heart, her talents and how hard she works at achieving her goals!

It was freezing outside, but Ava and her friend Lindsay toughed it out and held signs for the bake sale

Ava is a smart girl! Wish she was here so she and Mateo could talk books and academics. He's still trying to make friends at school. But no one seems to love reading as much as he does!
