my son had 6th grade graduation lastnight, i am so proud of him.. but during the ceramony they were handing out awards and the one thing he had worked so hard for was a perfect attendance, he did not miss any school. he was late once only because he had an appointment in the morning but when i took him in they told me that because he was there before the half day mark it would not affect his attendence.. well he never got called up to accept the award. i asked why he didnt get it and they said that there were no students that popped out on the computer that had perfect attendance i had pointed out that he was in school and never missed a day all they said was they will double check.. he was sooo upset..so what do i do about this? there is only 2 days left of school here... this is the 2nd time this has happened to him last year was the same thing, he never missed a day or was not late and they still did not award him for that..any suggestions would be greatly appreciated..

That's too bad! Well, since the school may not make up for this (to them it may not be such a big deal) maybe you could reward him with something? Make him a really nice certificate on the computer, or get him something he really wants or take him out to do something fun and special. If he was really hoping for some kind of acknowledgement, then it may be even better if it comes directly from you. That's more or less how I felt at that age, anyway... if my parents were proud and happy, then I was satisfied.

thank you for your response.. i will talk to him about goin out somewhere to eat. he loves to go out for dinner with us but sometimes it is hard to do.. that is a good idea i will alos make him a certificate too. i didnt think about doin that. thanks again.when i was his age my grandparents (they raised me) didnt so anything like that for me and i was dissappointed. i dont want him to feel that way..thanks again..
