1st Test

While Will and Rachel and I are in the states Darwin is helping the Shine! kids get started with their schooling.  Everyday after school we talk and he gives me updates on how the kids are doing both at school and at tutoring.  Today they had their first test.  Little Jose had the highest grade in the class with a 98.  Claudy and Escarleth both had grades in the 90's as well.  Dayana is struggling a little bit but is going to be able to retake the test on Monday.  Darwin is working with her to make sure she's prepared.  Claudy, the youngest of the bunch, has already begun to read in English.  Darwin is very proud of his little pupils and as excited as we are about their success.  Keep checking back for updates on their struggles and successes.
