First Days of School


Our newly renovated school house, came to life with the voices of our enthusiastic students this first full week of school. A huge thank you to the workers, work and witness team members, and parents for their tireless efforts in completing the school. Students and teachers are working together to build a community that demonstrates respect, honesty, and cooperation. Students have enjoyed using our 6 new iPads and projector provided by generous donors. Recording their observations of ecosystems, taking pictures, reading books, and practicing math facts are some of the uses of the iPads this week by our students. Unraveling human knots, designing balloon powered transportation systems, and cleaning the school each afternoon, have taught us all the importance of teamwork! We are also establishing routines and a daily schedule as we begin our math, reading, history, and science studies. Students in the states have this Monday off in observance of Labor Day, students at Kudjip have the day off so their teachers can go to town for their once a month shopping trip!
