(2 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - I went to my nephew's award assembly and I was very disappointed on how the assembly was represented, I and many, many parents were upset that the fact that the children who did not receive awards were not even congratulated for their achievements. Not even an award for grade completion. The school (Mrs. Johnson - principal) talks about encouraging our children, but she only stated positive things about the ones who did receive awards. She also spoke about her achievements of going to college, and I thought that was in poor taste. Now it makes me wonder why no one ones to participate in there PTA Meetings, because is all about who you know, not what you know. I really hope to see more in improvement when my child's award assembly comes.
