I just wanted to write you all and thank you so much for our amazing day with you at the PEACE School! We are so grateful to have such a dedicated, caring and enthusiastic group of individuals mentioning our children! T (grade 1) left there today without a doubt that she would like to continue attending the School!!! We are so excited!! I can't express how amazing it feels to have everything feel so right again and completely aligned! T has been bursting with confidence all night! She LOVED the violin lesson, we are definitely interested in renting one for the year. 🙂 The first thing she did when she got home was practice her writing (cursive as well) 😉 She continued to put on some relaxing music so she could practice ballet, creative dance and yoga...all of which she has decided she would like to teach one day! I actually had the pleasure of a guided yoga practice conducted by T. We are so thrilled and bursting with gratitude.

During our nighttime routine I always ask how D’s day has been and if there was anything in particular that she liked or didn't like. Since starting PEACE School her reply to what she has liked is a simple answer, (even if I know she have had a few struggles), "I liked EVERYTHING!" and her answer to if there was anything that she did not like, "Nothing I can think of." I also ask her if she misses me throughout the day, as I miss her, and she reassures me that she is too busy to miss me. It is D’s first year in a school-like setting away from her home and family. She has thoroughly enjoyed the social aspect of the PEACE School and associating with children of all different ages. She has been encouraged to learn interdisciplinary studies through a self-guided method with the engagement of music, theater, and art. Over the past few weeks her energy and excitement towards school has heightened and she has already strengthened her vocabulary, demonstrated an even more so independent nature, and is able to verbalize and express her feelings and emotions through conversation, drawing, and song. It is clear that she has already grown intellectually and emotionally. Thanks so much for all that you do!!!
