Fantastic Falcon!

 Jake's school focuses on a different character trait each 6 weeks, and at the end of each 6 weeks, one student from each class is recognized for exhibiting that trait well.  I love this idea!  I love the focus on being a good person who exhibits well rounded traits rather than just academic success.  I was so proud to learn that Jake was chosen for this last 6 weeks to receive the Fantastic Falcon award for DETERMINATION.  This particular 6 weeks, it was not only the teacher's decision, but also a  choice made by class vote, so Jake was chosen by his classmates and teacher for exhibiting determination.  Here he is hugging his teacher..

Here is our Determined Fantastic Falcon...
