With love and gratitude, we remember the many ways in which our friend and Board member Kathy Carey contributed to the mission of La’Angum Learning Center. As school founder Alice Iddi-Gubbels began to realize her dream of a school in her home village of Bumboazio Ghana in 2008, she tapped experienced OKC Montessori teacher Kathy Carey to train local teachers in Montessori education principles for children age 3-6. Kathy traveled to Ghana in 2008 and worked with the Ghanaian teachers, including four who are still teaching at the school. Kathy went on to serve as the first Board president of PAMBE Ghana. The impact of Kathy’s work is coming full circle as one of those initial teachers, Mary Azure, is set to travel to the U.S. next year to take a teacher training course in Montessori education for children age 6-9. We will deeply miss Kathy’s curiosity, independent spirit and zest for life!
