In Their Own Words. . .

On the new building: “The new school building is very nice and clean unlike the old one, which had no tables and was very shabby.”

 

On school subjects: “I like learning Khmer because it’s easy to learn.  I don’t like learning mathematics because numbers are difficult to learn.”

 

On her hobbies: “I like to read because I want to remember my lessons.”

 

On her future: “I want to be a tailor in the future because I want to make money for my family.  If I could do anything in the world I would be a teacher.”

 

Message to the donor: “I would like to thank Mr. Mark Lutz for building a new school for students here.”
