September 18, 2011My Family's Experiment in Extreme SchoolingThe phone rang, and my stomach clenched when I heard her voice. "Daddy? I want to go home," said my 8-year-old daughter, Arden. Two hours earlier, I dropped Arden and her two siblings off at their new school in a squat building in a forest of Soviet-era apartment blocks on Krasnoarmeyskaya (Red Army) Street in Moscow. They hugged me goodbye, clinging a little too long, and as I rode the metro to my office, I said a kind of silent prayer to myself that they would get through the day without falling apart.Posted by Jim Zellmer at September 18, 2011 1:01 AM Subscribe to this site via RSS/Atom: ![]() Comments
