The Rest of the story....

So I found out some more info on the whole student council situation. What a drama. So, in order to apply for student council, you have to write an essay on why you want to serve and then fill out an application which has a parent signature, and 4th, 5th and 6th grade teacher signatures. Kalli had her 5th and 6th grade teachers sign it but her fourth grade teacher is no longer there so she had asked the teacher in charge of student council to sign her application. The teacher said no and explained why (that her behavior wasn't examplary enough, etc, etc) but she told her that she could have another teacher sign it and then turn it in. So Kalli went to the person that she suggested and that person wasn't there so she came home crying because she didn't have the application done so she couldn't hand it in..... So that was the real story. No one actually told her she couldn't apply but I was sad that Kalli had it in her head that she wasn't behaved well enough to apply. So I am glad that I went to the principal and got to the bottom of things. I am happy that she is happy and also she knows that I care about her. She is on the list to interview for student council and has the chance she wanted to apply so I am happy about that too. I hope we don't have too many more situations like this during the year. It's just too much energy....
