High Expectations

I recently asked friends and supporters to write letters to my students with mistakes that my kids could correct. Normally, I write a letter to them every morning and they hunt for misspelled words, incorrect grammar, and words that should be capitalized but aren't. Today, our letter was from a former graduate of Sonlight, Jeffanne, who is now studying her way to become a doctor. When I introduced the letter to my 2nd graders, I said, "Jeffanne has gone all the way through Sonlight Academy!" Sully raised his hand and said, "Well, if she is finished with Sonlight she shouldn't have any mistakes!"
