The Latest We Are Thankful For!

Singing in any Language is a Joy!

As Thanksgiving approaches in the U.S., here's 4 things St. Paul's School in Haiti is grateful for that you made happen through your donations:

-St. Paul's received a Certificate of Excellence from the Haitian Ministry of Education, based on the 100% positive exam results for our 6th and 9th grades at the end of the 2012-2013 school year this summer.

- more scholarships have been added in the 2013-14 school year for students in 11th grade and above to continue their education after they finish at St. Paul's.

- A group of our educators at St. Paul's this month taught continuing education for the Haitian teachers in English as a Third Language, after Creole and French. A couple of them were musicians, and taught the children to sing Row, Row, Row Your Boat (for the youngest) and Michelle, My Belle (for the older). The "r" and "th" sounds are especially hard to learn, and this made it fun, the kids had a ball!

And we're especially pleased that a graduate of St. Paul's has returned this year--as a TEACHER, after getting her advanced degree in education. Long-term community capacity building is happening, with your help! We hope you will remember our children and their families this time of year. Joy and blessings to you and your loved ones!
