gratitude week 25

Education


Sure am grateful for education.
Also very grateful that an education does not have to come from a school.
That said, plenty of my education did.

=====================

K- most of grade 2 -- Ridge School

rest of grade 2 - grade 6 -- Caistor Central School

first two months of grade 7 -- Hampton Heights

rest of grade 7 and grade 8 -- Calvin Christian School

highschool -- Hamilton District Christian High School

college -- 1 year of 2 year accounting program at Mohawk College

a course at basic computers  (after we got our state-of-the-art 486 computer -- forget where but it was downtown on King Street by Kenilworth

a basic biology course -- from Mohawk College maybe down on Victoria?

a certificate in the creative writing program -- from McMaster University at the old courthouse campus

===============

and that is pretty much it for the formal education

some of us drink at the fountain of education
and some of us merely gargle there
