The boxes are unpacked, the bedrooms are settled and school is underway!
We have 68 kids on the bus (max. cap. 70) going from New Tribes every morning and afternoon.
Derek is enjoying pre-K along with his 16 classmates. There are about 70 kids in the childcare program from 5 months to 5 years, and a couple more on the way.Last Saturday we had a Kodiak event at the local airport. NTM had new airplanes built to carry more people and cargo, and take off with less runway needed. The MTC was giving away rides in an hourly drawing as well as selling rides to who ever wanted to go up. They had 12 flights go that morning. As soon as we got there my name was drawn so I got to take a ride!! John did some face painting for the kids and they had a bouncy house too. Local pilots flew in and gave the kids FREE rides throught the Young Eagles program, so Chloe and Ellie took a ride too. We all had a great morning!
The kids have made new friend and we are slowly getting to know our almost 400 new neighbors.
Some we like...
Some we don't...
We have spent the last 3 weeks in orientation, taken a world view class with George Walker, and discovering our learning styles. It is deffinately more relaxed here so there are lots of oportunities to get to know people better.
