In April, the families who spent the winter months in Kathmandu, or elsewhere at lower elevations, returned to Tsharka. Our School Coordinator, Samdup Tsering, bundled up all the school supplies for the coming school year so they could be transported on horseback from Jomsom, over the high passes, to the school. At the beginning of May, the students returned to school for this school year, which will go through the end of October. Because the school term is shorter in Tsharka than elsewhere in Nepal, the students have to cover more material each day. Despite this, our students have been showing good progess on the standardized tests they take at the end of each year. This year, the students will enjoy studying in the new, bright classrooms that were completed last year. With more students enrolled this year than ever before, the school is bustling with activity!
