First day of school



Today was the official first day of school this fall for children in Port-au-Prince.

It was also the first day of school ever for two of the children who have lived with us since the earthquake: Franclene and Kimberly.

They are both in First Grade, and have a lot to catch up on since they never went to pre-school. Carol has been working with them to learn their "ABC's" and numbers.

Many are struggling to pay for school this fall since tuition has gone up after the earthquake.
