Since we were unable to teach our normal computer classes during the pandemic, a large number of our teachers and staff used the opportunity to improve their computer skills by learning Microsoft Office 365 in the school’s computer lab. Thanks to our IT teacher, Chea Odom, for assisting in the project.
It has been a strange year for everyone, but it has been especially hard on school age children around the world.
At Spitler School and Stephen Mazujian Middle School we are glad that all of our students are now able to attend some classes in person. However, in an effort to adhere to social distancing, class size is limited to one-third capacity. That means that each student attends classes in person only two of the normal six days. Additionally, checking temperatures, wearing masks, and hand sanitation are now a standard practice.
It is a difficult time to be a student and a teacher, but we believe that students are continuing to learn, even in this trying environment.
Congratulations to two recent graduates who are both members of the Spitler School family. Vahn Sok Kein was one of our original teachers in 2005. She taught kindergarten for many years, and has served as a teacher, teacher mentor, bookkeeper and office manager. She also serves as a coach with our partner organization, Kids Play International. Vahn Sok Kein completed three years of university study with a degree in Accounting, in addition to being a busy wife and mother.
We would also like to congratulate Chea Sarin’s daughter, Sarin Vitee, on her graduation from 6th grade. Danny and Pam Spitler were lucky and privileged to be visiting Sarin and Mary in November of 2008 when Vitee was born. We have watched Vitee grow into quite an intelligent young lady. She already speaks great English, and we are excited about what the future holds for Vitee.
