November, 2021
November is celebration
month for students. Special projects are completed. School is wrapping up and
students receive recognition for all their efforts. It is also rainy season so
hanging laundry and getting it dry is a reason to celebrate! We are so thankful for internet and friends
who send us many updates and pictures so that despite missing the celebrations,
we can share from a distance. In turn,
we want to share with you too.
Giggle
It’s slow tourist season on the island. Belkis and her
brother were able to travel to the mainland to visit family and tour some
places they had never been. I really shouldn’t enjoy these two pictures so much
– Marcio is a 15-year-old. But – we have had a few giggles at Marcio’s expense.
Rainy Season
Rain, rain, and another day of rain. There’s lots of
water to fill the water barrels, but few days to wash (outside) and dry laundry. There are times that clothes are still damp when they are brought inside with the next rain. The families with under the house clothes lines are the lucky ones. Cool nights are opportunities for getting close to your family. Sometimes really close. 
Graduates
Congratulations to all of the kids who completed this school year. The studies were mostly online and independent study with only part-time in class instruction. Our graduates worked extra hard to finish assignments and meet the standards of their grade in order to graduate. We're proud of them all. * Many thanks to the families for sending us updates and many photos to keep us anxious to return as soon as we can.
