Today, the Grades 4,5,6 students spent the day on the grounds of the former King of Egypt. This area is called Montaza Beach. We left school at 8:30, arrived at the beach by 9:00 and spent the rest of the day there..As you can see, the children had a good time, as did the teachers. I spent a good part of the morning patrolling the waters making sure that students did not wander too far out into the sea.
The other pictures are from last night, June 2, when the Schutz School hosted all the Egytian workers and their families at a dinner and dance festival. These are the men and women who clean the rooms, vacuum the floors, do the heavy "grunt" work around school. It was so VERY cool to see them all dressed up for this event, and to meet and greet their families. It was a wonderful occasion and so much fun.

This is proud papa, Karom, and his family...his son is next to him. Behind him is his wife. You can't see his two-week old daughter who was behind his son. Karom is the man who vacuums my classroom, cleans our thrid-floor hallway....He is a wonderful young man.
