Kind Kid



At the last assembly of the school year Gavin was awarded the Kind Kid award of the year.  They usually let us know when the kids are receiving awards at school. This time they didn't and I was sad that we missed being there.  They did send home the a page with what was said about him though.

Gavin Weaver is a very caring and kind student.  You may not know him by name, but you probably recognize him from all his kind deeds around our school.  He is always helping others, whether they are struggling with their work, need help on the playground, or simply need a friend to sit with in the cafeteria.  He always acts in a very kind and respectful way and is always careful to guard the feelings of others.

Some people report that Gavin is especially courteous to others and always maintains a pleasant manner, no matter what the situation.  Whether helping a fellow classmate in the classroom, or assisting on the playground, Gavin acts without being asked.  He is simply a wonderful person and intuitively nice young man.  We are proud to have him at our school.  Gavin is definitely a "Kind Kid!"

Truthfully I was not surprised by this award.  Sweet and kind have always been two of the most common things I hear people say about Gavin.  He often puts others feelings and needs ahead of his own.  A perfect example of his thoughtfulness:  Gavin received a $10.00 gift card to Walmart for earning the third highest reading points in his class.  When I took him to the store to spend it, the first thing he did was select treats for his siblings.  Only after those things had been chosen did he then think about what he might like to get.  I am so proud of my sweet Gavin.  He's a giver!
