Amie's 8th Grade "Graduation"

Update, July 24: Thanks for the nice congratulatory emails about Amie's promotion and awards. That is really nice to receive. Just for information... somebody congratulated my "Haitian Cutie" -- actually, Amie and Joshua are my biological children. :-)

Original Post, July 23:
On Monday, July 21st, my daughter Amie "graduated" from the 8th grade. She had been attending the Language Academy, a public school within San Diego where students are taught in three languages, Spanish, French and English.
Amie graduated with high honors (3.9 GPA out of a 4.0 possible) and was named the Spanish Graduate of the Year. She gave a speech at the graduation ceremony.

Her principal is to the left of her and one of the school board members is next to the principal. Amie gave her speech in Spanish and in English. Her friend received the French Graduate of the Year award and gave a speech in French and English.

Amie starts high school in September. She has been accepted into the International Baccelorate Program at San Diego High School, one of the top rated high schools in the United States (according to Newsweek Magazine).

I am a proud mom! :-)
