We were excited to hear Sophia would be receiving the NC Pride award......the Gold card at that. Last Wednesday was the award ceremony and reception following.
She is such an outstanding student and we are so proud of her! In order to receive the award, the student need to excel in three categories: Attitude, Attendance & Academics. Here is the information from the school website about the program.
The NCMS PRIDE (Promoting Recognition for Individual Dedication to Excellence) program rewards students for outstanding performance in academics, attendance, and attitude. Students qualilfy for PRIDE by maintaining high academic averages or improving past averages, attending school regularly and arriving for school on time, and avoiding disciplinary referrals to the office. Rewards and incentives for PRIDE students are provided throughout the semester and include early dismissal from school, free and/or reduced admissions to school athletic events, cookouts, ice cream parties, coupons from local businesses, t-shirts and other prizes.
