I have amazing students every year. This year I have 3 from war torn countries that entered the first day speaking no English. The progress they have made is just remarkable. They are the hardest working students I have ever had. Education is everything to them and it’s such a joy to be their teacher.
Can you imagine going to school in another country? I can’t imagine what it would be like not to be able to speak or read the language. I am glad you have noticed their strengths Kelly! They sound like wonderful little people!

I am amazed by how quickly kids pick up the language and understand. What an interesting year for you. Do the three speak the same language?

I am in awe everyday with our ELL students. They surprise me, teach me , and inspire me. I think we are so lucky that they have come to Augusta.
