Chandler Quoted in Local Paper

http://www.forestgrovenewstimes.com/features/story.php?story_id=121321847609434200

Chandler attended a free writing class sponsored by Pacific University in Forest Grove. He resisted going, or we made him go, as the article states. Once there and sitting with Collin (his teacher's son also in 4th grade) he was glad we made him. If I can say so, Chandler is a very talented writer, from creative stories to poems. I recall his third grade being amazed by a haiku poem he wrote for her. I knew he would appreciate the extra instruction. He also won a book written by the guest speaker. Another big bonus...being mentioned in the paper...his teacher did give him grief about his comment on learning more there then in class.
