Our 5th grade teachers have a big awards day and make it a huge deal. Each child is rewarded for what they have exceeded in that year, from most improved student to straight A student. Sometimes I think they stretch just a bit, but these teachers cry when the give the most improved student to the little girl who got kicked out last year for truancy issues . . . and she made it 100 days in a row this year!!! Some of it can be stretching, but sometimes this is ALL THESE KIDS GET!!!!!

Am I am basing on who won which awards?
and not on the amount of money they have in their pockets. Everyone has different tastes- just because you think that Kelly and Carrie have won multiple awards, well Fantasia is going to be starring on Broadway in the Color of Purple. Not too bad for a winner, I would say. Clay also not the #1 but look at how he sells out those concerts. I could care less how many awards a person has, does not mean the runner-ups not good also in years past. Even though from the south I really am not into country, never have been and could care less about the punk style. It is all in the eyes of the beholder, really.
Elementary school awards...
Is it just me or do the elementary schools go a tad overboard with the award giving? I just attended the awards "ceremony" at my son's school (2nd grade) and they gave out awards in about 15 different categories...ranging from perfect attendance to no tardies, to mastering addition/subtraction facts! And over half the grade got the "citizenship" award...now in my day, only 1 student from each grade got that award. Kinda makes an award that is truly earned seem insignificant. I don't know, maybe it's just me...
At awards shows, she's ALWAYS paired up with somebody better, too...sm
