It's hard to believe that the first year of cooperation between Her Star Scholars and Alviola UCCP Learning Center has come to an end! We were able to provide scholarships to 45 children to provide them with tuition, books, uniforms, scholarships, and for several months 3 meals each week.
Last week the children attended closing ceremonies. Each class put on a performance. The nursery school and kinder-1 students dressed as flowers and butterflies. The kinder-2 students told a story with costumes including volcanoes and turtles. There was much singing and dancing.
Each child was presented with a certificate of completion by the president of the school board and the local pastor. The children received awards for excellent work throughout the course of the year.
5 girls have graduated from the Learning Center and will be moving on to elementary school in June.
