Kisoboka Academy

The school year is coming to an end. The 7th grade children celebrated the end of year and the end of their primary education. This is a major milestone in their lives. Most of their parents and guardians only attended school through the 4th grade.

 Thank you to everyone that donated dresses and shirts. Their graduation party was wonderful. I received letters and pictures, thanking everyone for the gift. Last week the children had their final activity as a primary student, the dreaded PLE (Primary Leaving Exam). The students were transported and provided food and housing to take this government required exam. Now they wait for the results, at the end of January.

 There are 52 students in the 7th grade, they all dream of going to High School. Only 12 are actively sponsored! The transport, food and housing, was not identified early enough for me to fund raise, for all the children to take the exam. The teachers and staff of Kisoboka Academy, voluntarily  were not paid last month, so all the children could take their primary leaving exam.

 Please consider sponsoring a child for their education. It is the only way to break the cycle of poverty.
