The teachers of Kenya have gone on strike to demand more money form the government. This only affects public schools, not private, so there are some schools that are still in session, like Purpose Driven and Kitale Family, where we have quite a few students.
Of course this still affects Kitale Forest and Milimani Primary, where we also have a ton of students. So instead of letting the kids just sit home and do nothing or possibly get themselves into trouble we decided to have the kids report to Oasis and the lower classes would be taught by Manu and Allison and I would teach class 7 and 8. She took Maths, English, and Creative Arts. I took Science, Social Studies, and CRE

Thats a great group picture. I am praying for you as you are getting ready to leave. I can't imagine how hard it is going to be and all of the mixed emotions. But at least you are keepin it real "Beer ME!"
