On June 9th at 7:00 P.M. Mini-School students will be recognized and awarded for things they have accomplished throughout the year. Some of these awards will be humorous, like the “sleeper” award, or the “now you see them, now you don’t,” which if I remember correctly was awarded to Clare Meyer last year. Other awards will be serious, such as: “best academic achievement,” or “best improvement.” Those are only a few awards that will be given. You will have to come to find out the rest.
Doug Berg has been preparing a joke for recognition night all year long. With all that time and effort, you know it will be good. Even if it’s not funny, laugh anyway, so you don’t hurt his feelings.
You will be oohing and aahing at the slide show which highlights the activities of the Mini School program. For example the trips we take usually bring us together and it’s a fun learning experience. You will also see how happy we really are with this program, when you see our cute little faces on the screen.
This year we have a surprise guest speaker (Doug won’t spill the beans). It is guaranteed to be meaningful, educational, and inspiring. It’s a good way to end the year and begin your summer, or for graduates a new life.
The invitation for this evening goes out to alumni, parents, grandparents, or anyone else that wants to join us for good food and lots of fun. It will be held in the small auditorium at Minnetonka High School. See ya there!
