Made it to 6:30 am Mass this morning, I was planning on going every day, but yesterday our grill work was padlocked and the girls had the key in their room. I was kind of tired, so I cannot say I minded too much.....
Today, Mass was again in the dark, but the people are so dedicated and kind. Walked to school with two girls who go to Mass, it was a great walk and a great start to the day.
Saw the flag-raising ceremony today at the Morning Parade (assembly), it was kind of cool as they send the flags bundled to the top, then they yank the rope, and the flag unfurls at the top of the pole. They have an honor guard, who really understand their role. Today, one of the kids told the adults that they should not be addressing the students from the front of the flag stand, as you should never place your back to the flags.....
A couple of good classes, today, we lost our middle class, but then got in back (the timetable is not consistent...LOL), but we were able to get it back and worked hard to get the content to the students....
A couple of more one on one help sessions....and then home....
Brought the wiffle ball and bat up to the field behind the schools and we played wiffle ball for an hour....
Came home and was disappointed that my tennis racket shaped, battery powered bug zapper was not making loud zaps, as the bugs were killed. Mosquitoes are still winning....

About the flag.
Have everyone assemble much closer to the flag pole, then have the teacher carefully walk around the pole, facing the pole the entire time, and when they get to the opposite side, and facing the group, then take roll call. That way, everyone is always facing the flag.
