A Special Award.

Photo




This is my Uncle David. He lives in Carlsbad, California. I wish he didn't live so far away...He is so much fun to be around. I miss the times we have had together!!






Uncle David is the superintendent of a school district near San Diego. He takes his job very seriously... He loves the kids, works hard, is very caring and compassionate, and wants to see all the students succeed. Here is an example of his love for the kids in his schools....
He goes to all the schools in his district, ALL the schools, hangs out in the cafeterias, and gets to know each student and their name. Now, if that doesn't show his love for the students, then I don't know what does!!!






He has a lot of Spanish speaking students in his school district, so he spent last summer in Mexico learning Spanish in order to communicate better with those students...
Another great example of how seriously he takes his job!!!!




Now...Onto the big news!!
Last spring Uncle David won a very special award. He won "Superintendent of the Year"!!! That, my friends, is a big award!! To be the superintendent of the year is a big accomplishment and a big compliment to my uncle, I'd say!!!!

Below are some pictures from when he received his award.

Based on the things I said previously, this is obviously something my uncle greatly deserved!!! I am so happy for him. He is such a good uncle, dad, brother to my dad, and everything else!!!!


I mentioned earlier in my post that he is funny. Here is a picture to justify that statement. ;)

I am so happy for my uncle and I know that he will keep up with his wonderful work in his schools. :)
Now for memories sake, I will leave you with a few pictures of my family with my uncle from when we went to California to see him a couple of years ago! Enjoy!!!!!
