Message:

Tomorrow, Gerardo, Fernando,and David will be taking the PACES diagnostic tests to see what grade they should be started in with the PACE system.  They will test in Espanol (grammar) and Math.  Looking at the tests, it is much more than what they are used to from the school here. Mark went to the School of Tomorrow to purchase the PACES, they recommended the testing first.  We were also going to sign a contract, but had not been informed as to the cost of doing this, $500.  We can buy the PACES as we go without doing this at a higher cost.  Basically it will be about $50 per course, per year, per child.   The other drawback is that it is only in Spanish through 6th grade, a real problem for us.   Please pray for us in this. Number one, the provision to do it financially.  Then we need another teacher besides Mark and I.  Today I have been trying to do a workable schedule for us until we have a teacher.   Thank you for caring about the boys education, Paula
