So we wanted to let you all know we have been working hard and planning well for this upcoming school year. We thought one of the best ways to show you was to present to you our academic calendar for next year 2015. There will be slight changes along the way, but for the most part it is pretty well set.
Most of you are wondering the future plans of the Gilliland family...trust me, we are too! Here's what we know so far, Lord willing. Wendy and I are returning to Uganda together January 15th to provide all grades (Pre-K through 4th grade) brand new international curriculum and the training that will be required to properly teach our students for the upcoming year. Because Emma, Annie and Lucy will be left behind, Wendy will be coming back stateside after the week-long training and another week of teacher/student assessment is complete. After her two week stay, she will then leave me behind to monitor and oversee the mission/academy and to prepare for the much anticipated group coming the beginning of March. My plan is to arrive back stateside on March 15th.
Please be watching our up coming Facebook posts...because of our decision to add Pre-K next year, we are able to enroll not just 11 students, but 22 new students! Which means we are going to have much opportunity for more sponsorships. So for those that have been thinking about sponsoring a child here...please, be prayerful about and just go for it. Your $49 a month will change a life forever. Trust me, I'm seeing it first hand.
