October 18 Julieto Today I want to tell you a little about one of my students- Julieto. Julieto is 19 years old and lives in our Teen Home. He has lived at CSC for almost 10 years. It has been amazing to see how much he has grown and changed in those years. Julieto was actually one of my students during my first two years of teaching here. School was really difficult for him and he ended up taking two years off to work. Last year he decided he wanted to go back to school to finish elementary and high school. In order to go to high school, he first needed to finish 6th grade at our school. So in June, Julieto once again began attending Children of Hope School and it has been so much fun having him back in my class! Despite the hardships of his childhood, not being adopted, and struggling with learning, Julieto has a very positive attitude towards life. His huge smile brightens up our room everyday and his sense of humor keeps us all laughing. Even when a concept is difficult, he tries his best and never gives up. He always makes sure he has his homework and loves sharing anything new that he has learned outside of school. This last week Julieto got up in front of our class and gave a short speech on Stonehenge. I was so proud of him! It is hard to get up in front of others, but he stood up their confidently and spoke clearly in English. Right now, Julieto's dream is to finish high school and maybe someday become a cook on a ship. While we don't know what the future holds for him, we know that whatever he ends up doing, it will be done with a big smile on his face and a positive attitude. Please pray for him as he continues on his journey through life. Pray that he will be able to grasp the concepts being learned in school.
