The new K4 (pre-kindergarten) program started up last week in Dhahran. The mascot for the elementary school is the Arabian Horses so in the K4 program they call themselves the “Ponies”. Nora has been looking forward to her first day of school for a very long time now. Despite this I thought that on the big day she would go all shy and want to do a lot of hiding behind our legs. Boy was I wrong. Even minutes into the first day where all the parents attended with their kids it was clear she didn’t need us there. I hope we didn’t crimp her style too much.
The K4 classrooms are situated in the building next to our offices so it is nice to catch a glimpse of Nora now and again. In fact, the ponies parade past Crystal’s office window each morning as they get off the bus. Enjoy the pictures.
