Kes has been nominated for the Semper Donates Award! I am so proud of her! Yeah, I know. I didn’t either, but the paper she brought home explains… She is being recognized for being a senior who has demonstrated service and commitment to their school and community that makes them exemplars of excellence. It goes on to say that it is one of the highest awards bestowed upon a student at Dickinson High. Semper Donates is a Latin term that means “always giving”. But, like myself, I am sure you speak fluent Latin and knew that. Just in case- it is pronounced, doe-not-a’s, not donate. Cause, hey, anyone can forget a little of the favorite language they love to jabber all day long.

I, too, am very proud. I am sure that all her brains and abilities came straight from me.

BTW I totally read that word right! And that in itself is disturbing as I never studied latin.
