On Tuesday, March 4th, Jennie was given the Kiwanis West Citizen Of The Month award for Ocotillo Elementary School. Ann and I went to the district office to see Jennie get her award. Dr. Lebetsamer presented Jennie with her award, after reading the following letter from Jennie's teacher, Mrs. Hurst (Aunt T):
It is my pleasure to honor Jennie White as the First Grade Kiwanis student of the month for February. She continually exhibits all four character traits of the Palmdale School District.
She is a respectful and responsible child who works above and beyond first grade expectations. She is a highly motivated learner and always wants to do her best.
She is a trustworthy and fair leader in and out of the classroom as well as a good role model to her peers. She has an enthusiasm for learning that is contagious.
She is friendly and well liked by her classmates and is always willing to be a friend to those around her. She is kind and compassionate beyond her years.
Jennie is always smiling and brightens our classroom with her positive attitude. She is a delightful child and I am honored to be her first grade teacher.
Mom, Dad and big brother Jacob are very proud of Jennie!
