Back to School 2020

The giggles and smiles are back for a new school year. In late October, Kuma welcomed its new class of 130 students which span seven grade levels. Each day the kids are learning the local Khmer curriculum which is enriched by English lessons, dance, drama, and P.E. Included in that number are 43 students enrolled in Kuma's rigorous "fast-track" program intended for kids who have never before attended school. Another 13 kids have graduated from the fast-track program and now attend Grade 3 at their local school. Without Kuma, these kids would again be left behind for another school year.
