After a rather odd week (not sure we got much done!) – we’ll be able to get some time back this week. Why? Because the 6th and 7th graders are taking the Tera Novas – which means we get 70 minute long classes!
We’re starting the Causes of the Civil War this week.
Objectives: “Explain the causes of the Civil War”; 8.SS.9 A-G; PS.2,4,5; Geo.2

I didn’t really know Sarah until January. We both had vague memories of our time in Brazil 30 years ago (“You always had a backpack” she would remember, which sounds about right. “You were tall and loved to dance” I would remember. Which also right.) No matter. She was part of the most amazing (and exceptionally eclectic) crew of former Rotary Exchange Students participating in our reunion this year. And everyone loved her. She also was dying.
Whatever happens, there will always be people who say: It’s all completely awful, and others who say: It’s all a complete joke. Koos Van Zomeren.
Some quick notes on who is here for the renunion. And some great beach pictures!
