Graduation Reception at Holiday Inn #Class2019

After the mass and the graduation rites, students and their families  went to Holiday Inn for the reception and awarding ceremony.  Graduation here is a lot different than the ones we have back home.  Never the less, it was a great moment for our first born.  I can't believe that she have graduated  from St. Joseph already.
Their homeroom teacher, Mrs. Ferguson made this Name initial project and have them decorated it with pictures.  They were displayed at the reception hall.  I thought that was a really nice touch to the  special occasion.
I got the chance to take some photos of these beautiful young ladies before before the awarding ceremony started.
With Lizzy, Lyd, Jul, and Ally.
I thing their homeroom mom, Rose A, baked this cake  for them.
I'm not quite sure if these cakes were also provided by the homeroom moms or  by the caterer. It's hard to recall the details since a year have passed already.
The white and black gang, me, Darla, and Rose.
Looking  at these kids made me realized how time flies. I can remember how little they were when they all first met in kindergarten.  
Here's the list of awards my daughter received.

  • -Athletic Recognition for Volleyball 5th-8th
  • -Academic Award in recognition of maintaining a perfect 4.0 GPA for 8 years
  • -West Virginia History Bowl 2019 participation
  • -President’s Education Awards Program Award for Outstanding Academic Excellence 
  • -Yearbook Cover Contest Winner
  • -St. Aquinas Medal recipient
Yearbook cover winners
With her friend Emily.
With her close friend Lydia M.  They've been friends  since Kindergarten.They're still friends even  now that Lyd goes to Weir High.
The combination of St. Paul and St. Joseph, they all gotten close because of volleyball.
Lyd M., Emily, Mack S. Julia W., Jul V., Olivia, Ally P, Lizzy E., Hannah B., and Rye.
We chose to continue her education to Catholic School.  It's true that it's expensive but I think it's worth every cent we spent for our children.  They're smart and seeing their grades is like our reward for a money well spent.  Our son will be  in 8th grade this and hopefully, Covid19 will be gone by the time he graduates.
