Hello my name is James and I am 8 years old. I do not like school at home because I miss my friends and I miss out on field trips and end of the year activities. I hate that I can’t see my friends.

My mom and dad are teaching my life lessons. I have learned how to cook. I love to help BBQ and my favorite is making disco. I love to bike around Gretna. I enjoy the family time during lockdown but I don’t like the school work or being away from my friends.
