On Thursday, Josiah graduated from the sixth grade. I was fortunate to be in town during this time so I got to go to the ceremony. There were about 90 to 100 sixth grade students. The students were seated in chairs that faced the audience; the teachers were on the stage. The program started with the students singing the school song. It was interesting to see some singing full heartedly – others barely opened their mouths.
There were awards and certificates given to students who excelled in music, sports, civic participation, and so on. Following the awards, each student came forward to receive their "diploma."
Following the ceremony, there was a reception in the gymnasium. We spent a little bit of time there and then left so that Hans and Rachel could go to work.
