Actually for Luckner and I and Lois and Brad, who have been helping us
with the reopening of our school, the work of the school has never
stopped. Luckner had three weeks of registering students and buying
fabric for uniforms, while Lois and Brad have been cutting it all up in
preparation of us getting it into the hands of the students. The next
big job is to start purchasing all the textbooks.
The three weeks I was away Luckner did the registering of students for
the 2013-2014 school year. All students, returning, and new, must
register to attend in September. He registered more than 40 new
students for preschool and several in our grade 7 class.
Our school, IMKH, fared very well in the government exams for grade six
and for grade nine again this year. Thank you for those results go to
Luckner who pushed both teachers and students. The last couple of
months of school Luckner had the grade six teacher give extra classes,
while he taught the grade nine students on Saturdays and Sundays to
prepare them for the big exams. Our grade six class had 18 out of 20
and our grade nine had 18 out of 21 pass.
Thank you to you, our present sponsors, who are continuing to pay for
your students. If any of you have not yet paid for the school year
2013/2014 we ask you to please do so through Dickie MacDonald in
Yarmouth. If you are willing to start sponsoring a student this year
you can download a form from our website or get in touch with Dickie or
Sandra MacDonald or Liette Wilson:-

Sandra - sandra.hatshaiti@gmail.com
Liette - liette.hatshaiti@gmail.com
We are now in need of more sponsors especially for our newly registered
little ones and for some grade seven students who passed the government
exams and who have chosen to continue their education at our school.
Preschool to grade six is $275 per year. Grade 7 to graduation s $375
per year.
Thank you once again for all the ongoing help in getting the children in
our area receive an education. Attending school gives students and
families hope. Without hope the people perish.
Every aspect of the HATS-Haiti Mission is and always will be ALL
ABOUT THE CHILDREN.

Congratulations on the big number of students passing grades 6 & 9! Woot! Woot!
You will be kept busy preparing it all for the next year again. Wish I was there to help BUT don't know what help I would be in that heat and humidity! Thankful that you have Lois and Brad to help this year.
