School Enrollment Growing

School Enrollment Growing

This morning we met with the workers here at the Village of Hope. For
the first time we are offering to open the enrollment of our school to
children other than the children in our care in the Village. The
criteria is that at least one parent has to be employed here, that the
child needs to between the ages of 6-11, and in grade 1 or 2. There
will be the same fee that is charged by the Okada Community School
next door, plus there is a fee for lunches.

The workers, mainly men, asked questions. The biggest issue they had
was with the fees and for those in Liteta, the transportation. Later
in the day I heard that there was excitement by some of the workers
that they could bring their child here.

So in the next couple of days we will be receiving the applications
and the new children will start next Monday. Everyone is excited!
