Pictures to lighten the mood...

Here are some pictures of the last several months. Seems like I haven't been quite as camera happy since there are only a handful of photos to demonstrate 4 months. Sorry about that.

At the end of June we were required by the Ecuadorian Ministry of Education to have a school day on a Saturday. SO... we created a family day and had the kids demonstrate their various talents.

In the beginning of July we had Kinder graduation.

At mid-July was senior graduation. We had 10 graduate this year!

The beginning of this school year, we've had several changes. One of the biggest being we added 

Pre-K. Check out these cuties!

With the weather being so dry this summer, out students have discovered how much they love sliding down the hill!

To begin the school year we did a school wide project where students had to write their goal for this school year.

We had some students with great goals!

Another change is that we have club classes at the end of the school days. I (Tanya) teach the art club. We learned about the color wheel and color mixing with frosting and cookies. It was a delicious lesson!

We also celebrated Ecuadorian Day of the Flag. This year we have 6 seniors and 4 of them are from the Hacienda. Catalina is our Valedictorian and Jorge our Salutatorian. They received special honors during the flag ceremony. We are so very proud of these kids!
