Small World (Dana Street in Amherst, MA - Kings Academy in Madaba-Manja Jordan)

November 1, 2009
Madaba-Manja Jordan

My neighbor Hannah Ryan is doing a gap year at Kings Academy as a mentor to students (this is King's first graduating class, and since the tenth grade they've brought in high school graduates to serve as mentors to the younger students).  I was able to deliver her winter clothes. Hannah is having a blast, and since she is working with the college counseling office she was invited to join us for dinner.  It's amazing when you travel to Jordan to pick up the small town Dana Street gossip (such as where might Ben B. apply early decision and did you know that Scott C. got a mohawk and died his hair?).
