School's Out!

We made it! Today was the last day of school. Instead of mailing out report cards, every student had to return to school today to pick up their report cards. It was sweet to see the receiving of report cards from the side of the teacher - all the kids comparing grades, screaming for joy, hugging each other, and heading out for the holiday. And it was funny to see them in their "street clothes" and not their uniforms - they all look so much older. Most of all, it was touching when a few learners who improved so much this term ran up to hug their teachers and thank them profusely for teaching so well.

In honor of the last day of school, which I think everyone remembers fondly, enjoy this favorite high-energy last-day-of-school homage: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MU6qDI_DRc4
