Back in the 80's when I was in Junior High and High School I made the honor roll all the time. I was a geek and made straight A's with an occasional B thrown in for good measure and no it was not in gym!!
Anyway here we go again, Daniel Beatty makes the honor roll again...
Central Dauphin High School Honor Roll - Grade 12 -- Daniel Beatty, Nicole Becker, Katie Berkowitz, Jessica Bottiglier, Kaitlin Brennanm, Michael Cheslock, Rachel Christensen, Megan Davies, Evan Dearmitt ...
There it is again Daniel Beatty on the honor roll. Now the question seems what does this gain a person? Does the honor roll actually mean anything? OK it is acknowledgment for being an A/B student but for someone who is always on the honor roll is it truly an accomplishment? My one son is always on the honor roll it means nothing to him. The other one appears that he will also be doing the same what will it mean to him? Since I have always been on the honor roll it may have less meaning for me but how about for someone that struggles with school?
How about a person that really really puts forth a great effort and is able to accomplish getting all A's and B's does it mean more to them? I would have to think that it definitely would mean more, especially to the parents and to the teachers. It would show that this child can accomplish goals, that the child is capable of succeeding at something he/she puts their mind to. It would be a good feather in that students cap. So Daniel Beatty if you are one of those students that struggled hard to accomplish the feat of being on the honor roll your senior year of high school - congratulations!
