well, we wait more.

the AYA lady spoke to a vice-principal in our town who said she could not add another student right now.

so she called teh principal of the next town over. who had to talk to the super. who said, "no". b/c she would be an inter-district transfer. principal had already filed a waiver to not take anymore and if they open it up for this student, they have to for any who want to go. *pout* i dont see why they couldnt say, "oh, we have room for one more - you, how lucky" :o9

soooooo, i went to see the principal of our high school. i am very grateful that he's a "good ole boy" b/c otherwise i would have been scared out of my wits to talk to him! rofl. The VICE principal, otoh, is a witch.

I left today with no more news than i went in with. i did leave knowing more and with a slim glimmer of hope, though.

AYA emailed the student's paperwork to the principal, who will look it over and the vice will see if she can fit her into some classes. The VP kept stating that it was more an issue that GERMANY wants the students to take certain classes and she cant fit her into those.

BUT AYA says that is not true. that they ONLY required courses are: US History, math and an English/Language Arts course.

I encouraged her to write that in the note to the principal. Praying that will make a difference.

In the meantime, someone in the AYA office purchased our student a plane ticket to the wrong place. AND after the second school told AYA "no" she began pursuing a placement in the town the plane was goign to. :o( so, we still may loose our student.

She says there are others, we're just praying for God's will in it all. and a peace about His will and knowing that even detours and stop signs are from Him.

In the meantime, my 6yo is going around the house singing, "[name] comes tomorrow! tomorrow! tomorrow!" even though we've told them, repeatedly, that it is not for certain.

How could we refuse such a face?
