lincoln

The official name of this school is Asociacion Escuelas Lincoln. This morning the three of us went to an orientation meeting. The high school has about 250 students. There is a six story building behind this “mansion” that houses all of the high school classrooms.

It was bitter cold today and the wind blowing off the river was piercing. I did pause and wonder though, how the students will manage to concentrate on their studies in a couple of months when they have views of the city and the river beckoning from almost every classroom. Even today, we saw several sailboats.DSC01684

School starts Wednesday. Brianna will be picked up by the bus at 7:10 and arrive home around 4:10. She has 8 classes. She will attend four alternating every other day for 90 minutes each.
