i think he had a good time in middle school. i got the impression that he's a friend to many & also has some close buddies from his small, accelerated math class. it's been, i think, a year of being top o' the heap & enjoying success in many parts of his school life. so, good-bye middle school . . .

| Joseph was asking me 'Why?' Well, Joseph, because you are g r a d u a t i n g (something) ! |
it was a looooong ceremony. many names read from the stage; many awards given out. Joseph & several of his crew were recognized for straight-A's. he worked hard to make top grades all three years of middle school, and we are so proud of him!
Joseph also earned a Science Award
for highest gpa in that subject....his favorite!
