Sir Keen Insight

This weekend my son's school held their Medieval Faire.



My son played the king in a short play based on Saint George and the Dragon. The dragon killed him.


Luckily, he was brought back to life.

Later, the graduating students were knighted by the "real" king and queen, with their young prince looking on.



My son was dubbed "Sir Keen Insight". I wish I had written down the kind things they said about him. The ceremony was actually quite touching, as each student's unique and noble qualities were described.

We're going to miss Open Fields School very much. It is a special place. And in many ways, it saved our child. Thank you Karen, Jean, Mary and Mindy for helping our son rediscover his love of learning, for celebrating his differences, and for encouraging him to discover and share his own keen insights.



And thanks Woody, too. For being the best school dog ever.
