Opening Day

The doors of the new and improved Minerva School officially opened Monday.  In my 6 years of teaching, I have been lucky to be a part of 2 school openings.  There's nothing quite like a new, clean building.  Everything so fresh and unmarked.  The anticipation of little bodies filling the seats. 

The teachers (well most of us) have been hard at work getting everything ready. 


There was a short ribbon-cutting ceremony.

 

 

Including a performance of the Honduran National Anthem by the Minerva School band.

After the cermony snacks were served, of course, and the students got to tour the new building.

 

 

It's been an amazing 3 years watching this project from when it was first presented to the parents on a Powerpoint slide show, to actually walking through the doors for the first time.  Congratulations, Minerva!
