Connor wasn't the only Courtright who was stacking up the accomplishments and awards this year. In 7th grade, Kaitlynn was having a stellar year herself, far exceeding our expectations (and hers!) along the way! Toward the end of the school year, Kaitlynn was invited to join the National Junior Honor Society for her hard work of achieving high grades all year long. She enjoyed the ceremony with her friends, even if she wasn't all that thrilled about dressing a little nicer for the event. Sounds just like her big brother! And I couldn't help but crack up when apparently my photo-taking was SO EMBARRASSING to this girl of ours while she waiting to walk across the stage. Ah, the joys of junior high, HA!
On another occasion, Kaitlynn was invited to attend the Junior High Awards Night where select students are honored for their accomplishments in their classes and leadership. We were so proud of Kaitlynn when she received the Timberwolf Award, given to those students who maintained an A average throughout the entire school year. Wow! Despite her busy sports and activities schedule, Kaitlynn had blown us away with her work ethic and commitment to her studies all year long. It was so rewarding to see her honored in this special way.
While I didn't manage to take a photo, we surprised Kaitlynn with a new iPhone for her hard work and accomplishments throughout the school year, just like we had done for Connor. We are so proud of both kiddos for their drive and dedication to their activities and school work. Awesome job, Kaitlynn!
