Kyle Jerro
Before covid, Kyle was a yearly visitor. In 2020, covid changed all that. Having Kyle come home was special as he has been missed. Kyle is from Texas and is currently employed in the UK. His position is senior lecturer, Department of Language and Linguistics, University of Essex. Kyle also served on our Hope Made Real International Board for three terms.
His arrival on March 23 was a celebration. He had a short time with the Urukundo students as the first two weeks of April are spring break. The students were spending time at home with their parents and siblings.
We were happy to welcome Kyle back even though his visit was short.
Meeting with and greeting the kids was special.
The tradition for our students is to gather for closing exercises. That event happened this year on March 31. The soccer field is the perfect place for more than 1,150 kids to gather. Awards and report cards were given for the term, and parents accompanied the kids to this gathering.
I also am privileged to attend this momentous occasion.
A bench was provided for me. Kyle and I shared the bench.
Kyle spent free time at the daycare. Our daycare is open year-round. Kyle was caught on the floor playing with the younger set.
Pretend cameras are fun. Doesn’t everyone smile for the camera with their eyes closed?
