My students took their final exams on Thursday and I have marked/scored/graded them all. The majority of my students received A's and B's with only a handful failing. I'm glad that they did so well considering the exam covered material starting in January.

We have started to clean our house and will have one last pizza party on Saturday. Then next week we leave for Dar to COS (close our service). As of 21 November we will no longer be PCVs but I will try to put up posts about our travels to Uganda, Ethiopia, and Egypt.
