A2: I surveyed the parents to come up with a consensus as to when is a good time for school-wide awards for each quarter.

A2 I think they should take place more often than once a year. I need to work on that as that is our current reality.

A3 I'd say a con is not having family be able to come and support a student. I've had to step in for a few graduations before.

Not sure what we base some awards on. It's not like a race when you know who wins based on time and distance.
