a lady knight



Today was a very important day for Bailey. Her school has children knighted for excellent behavior. There are 5 things that Sir Berry, the knight,told the kids they could do to become a knight: say yes ma'am yes sir, keep your hands to yourself, ask four words" how can I help",sit up straight, look your teacher in the eye, and when your teacher is talking you are not. The teachers at Bailey's school get together and pick the students they feel live by this "knights code" at all times. Bailey's teacher told me that they poll six teachers who deal with each student on a regular basis and only the ones the feel really live this code are chosen for this honor.

Any time I have been in Bailey's school I have been impressed with the way all the kids behave towards each other,the building and the teachers. Today was no different! They packed the parents and all of the classes from pre-k to forth grade in the cafeteria and at times while the principle and Sir Berry spoke you could have heard a pin drop. It was truly and awsome and proud thing for this momma to see! Way to go Bailey! and as Sir Berry told you all this is just the start of many great things to come if you live by the knights code! You are an AWSOME KID!
