What I knew that was when we received the letter of congratulations, so did Mrs. Chun. She wrote the following to me.
Hi, Ms. Powell
It is so wonderful and I am very proud of Tenaysia.
Congratulations!!!
Hope she has a memorable trip.
I will meet Tenaysia next school year and I am so excited.
Thanks,
Ms. Chun
Mrs. Chun was kind enough to share it with her counterparts, who in turn decided to share it with the rest of the school. Before Naysia left school Monday, Mrs. Clayton warned her that there would be an overhead announcement of her achievement the following day.
For those that don't know Naysia, she is rather shy. She gets it honest. I was painfully shy as a child--and as an adult I do shrink back at times. She loves to praise others but does not enjoy being in the spotlight. I've managed to change the chorus of The Pointer Sister's "He's So Shy" to "She's So Shy" and change the lyrics based on the situation. You can imagine how much she enjoys that.
Her recognition was indeed shared, and her peers cheered her on. One of 38 students chosen to attend a once in a lifetime program that was applied for by hundreds. She should be proud, I am.
