Rebekah's Last Day of School

Rebekah wanted to look nice for her last day of school because she was receiving an award. BIG surprise. She got student of the year last year, so I knew it was going to happen again.
She received two this time. Her teacher gave her the kindest award and then she got an award for an accelerated learning class she attended most of the year.
Miss Marchant was the best teacher for her. She made sure that Rebekah always had something to challenge her. She assigned her extra work and had a small group of the advanced kids to research projects in the library to continue their learning. She was Awesome.
After school was over Miss Marchant told Rebekah that she wanted her to be on the Knowledge Bowl team next year. Miss Marchant is the captain and said that Rebekah would be great at it. I had already thought about having her participate so it was nice to get an official invite. It is like a spelling bee, they compete with other schools.
