Current Report Card
Nui just finished the first semester of 7th grade. She earned 3.53 GPA with 8 “A”s ! She is maintaining her grade even in new school. She is doing well in all her core subjects – Thai, English, Art, Athletics.
Michael’s Observations:
One of “the twins,” Nui (pronounced N’wee) is both almost identical to her twin, Nuey (pronounced Nue-ooi), and not at all like her. The two were inseparable when they arrived, but with the passage of time have developed their own circles of friends and defining personalities. While Nuey has gotten cool and in with the cool crowd, Nui has remained very much the little girl she really is. She is soft spoken and friendly, getting along with everyone. She is also super smart and does really well in school. She never makes a big deal of anything, but quietly goes about being a great kid.

Nui Nuttayanee comes from the original Karen village of Mea Soon.
Her identical twin sister Nuey is so alike, it’s hard to tell them apart sometimes! Everything from their clothes, to their hairstyle, to their names are similar.
You’ll never catch them without their noses in a book and they also love to help Napan prepare for dinner every night.
They will be going to Mae Pang school this fall to finish their last year of primary school.
Nui likes most to hang out with her school friends. In fact, she enjoys school so much that she hopes to become a teacher after she finishes her studies! Although she’s still not sure what age group she would like to work with yet.
