Adequate Advocate

Gearing up and preparing for the second term of the academic year, entailed much planning, working out details, and organization.  We are thankful for the great unity of staff members who gathered together for a long staff meeting to discuss and plan for the new year and that as the student population grows, we welcome on board a few new staff members this month. Also, in addition to helping in school every morning, Jessica has started doing Preschool work with Gilead and his buddies, Matthew and Benaiah, at home every afternoon. These kids can crack you up with the funny things they say!  Galilee said tracing the lines was too hard because, "the lines are slippery" 😂 and when they were to guess why the lights were off in the house in the story they said, "probably the power was off". 😮 Their excitement is contagious and it is fun to hear Matthew speaking more and more sentences in English.
