Jaedyn’s Home Run for Academic Success!
Jaedyn, a 4th grade student in the CIS Action for Success program at Supply Elementary is pictured with her Success Coach Mr. Drew at the softball field in Shallotte after one of her end of year games. Having a month’s worth of makeup work to complete to bring her failing grades up to passing grades, Mr. Drew made a deal with Jaedyn that if she completed all of the missing assignments, and brought her grades up to passing grades, he would go to her softball game and she could pitch to him after the game. Jaedyn worked with Mr. Drew for an hour or more a few days a week for the past month to complete all of her missing assignments, and not only managed to make passing grades, but she brought them up high enough to make the A/B honor roll for the fourth quarter grading period.
Mr. Drew kept his promise and purchased a pink softball glove and face mask and then pitched to Jaedyn following her final game. He then gifted the glove and mask to her as an ongoing reminder that if you set stay focused and work hard, you can achieve your goals. Jaedyn hit this one out of the park! Congratulations Jaedyn!
