Grade 9 graduate

What a year!!! Covid came and decided to interrupt our process and routine. It practically threw all the plan I have in my head out the window.

It increased Samuel’s anxiety. He went into depression. He developed fear of being alone and for the first time, Samuel had to see a therapist. The year was tough but it came with victories.

Samuel finished grade 9 and passed ALL his courses. He got a D in one but the rest were As or Bs. To say I am proud of him is an understatement because he proved many wrong and surprised as well. My aim has never been for Samuel to get As or Bs, it’s for him to do his very best and he continue to do this day in and day out.

I am proud of all my kiddies. I am so blessed to be privileged to have them. Everyday, Samuel and his siblings teach me about myself; about life, about my limit, about my ability. They continue to elevate me above my imagination.

As we take a break, we continue to use the summer to be tutored in both English and Math. We continue to explore learning opportunities and we continue to expand our coast.

I am excited to see the challenges that grade 10 will throw our way. I am beyond proud of this young man. Congratulations Sam, you’re a Grade 9 graduate😁💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾
