Olivia
She attended a her first scholar school class- "Key of Liberty" in town. She loved it! She wasn't ready to start and the beginning of the school year but she is ready now. Every Friday she will meet with about 18 other kids and she learns about Early American History for several hours. There are lectures, book discussions, oral reports, written reports and many other assignments given. She really enjoyed it. After class they had a guest lecture come in and talk about several things. They then went as a class to a students class and watched a movie about the militia and minute men in the Revolutionary War. She is excited to go back next week.
