We open every morning with the national anthem, prayer and devotions. Both handicapped and non-handicapped children stand together. This is a symbol for the community that these children stand together and are part of the haitian society.

Jislaine Neanty is a determined deaf girl. She refused to sit in the handicapped class and wants the challenge of sitting in the non-handicapped class.

Lukner Exuma is a young deaf boy that is also attending school here at Coram Deo.

Rio Dana Bosquet is a downs syndrome boy that is serious about going to school.

Kervin Louissaint is a 10-year-old boy who now has the opportunity to go to school. On his first day he dressed in his Sunday best! We don't have uniforms but we ask the parents to make sure that they come to school with clean clothes, shoes and proper hair cuts.

Manu's homework got eaten by a mouse or rat and he was only able to complete a portion of it. I wrote a note for the teacher and he didn't get in any trouble. Now we have to do some hunting in the house to eliminate all the rodents!

The school program is going well. Anderson Jeudi is the deaf boy who was kidnapped in August and now is living here at Coram Deo during the week. He is an eager student!

William is a mentally handicapped boy who spends most of his spare time here at Coram Deo. He does not have a good home life and his family doesn't care for him well. One day he came to the house and he had several welts on his back caused by being whipped.

Junior lives here at Coram Deo. He was the boy who was living on the streets for 3 years with a bad case of Norwegian scabies. He is now around 15 years old and is now learning to read and write.

Here is one of the classes. We give the Lord thanks that the school program is open again and pray for funds to keep this program going.
