We qualified for All State award. It's pretty prestigious. It means we did all the required programs: the two essay contests for jr and senior high, the teacher of the year program, the emergency responder program, made community donations, attended all meetings, attended annual officer training, attained 103% membership, effective patriotic program, filled community service reports, and more.

It's a big deal, and a great deal of effort. Last year we barely missed. This year we made it. And... I'm already working towards next year!

BTW... I'll get a neat new hat too.
