“I lived in South Africa until I was 11 when we first immigrated. My mom had sent me back there when I was 14 for summer vacation. I wasn't doing very well in school, my grades were slipping.

I ended up staying there until I was 17 before coming back to North America.” FirstsWellsSchoolAmericaMomOne DaySummerSouthMy MomGradesStayingVacationSouth AfricaComing BackNorth AmericaSlippingSummer Vacation Author:Kandyse McClure
