About

Khadar is from Hargeisa, and grew up living in the same house as many siblings and cousins. He is one of three members of this family to attend Abaarso, and has sisters in grades 9 and 7. He and his sister first heard of Abaarso because one of their neighbors is an alum. When they saw the school's graduation on Somaliland television, their mother told Khadar and his sister that they should attend Abaarso. Khadar had a very successful 7th grade year at Abaarso, excelling in all subjects but showing particular talent in math. He looks forward to using his talents to one day make it easier for people like him to attend school.

My name is Khadar Abdi. I am from Hargaisa. I am in my sophomore year in Abaarso School Science and Technology. In this paragraph, I am going to tell you a little bit about my background, interests, achievements, and my goals. This year is great so far and achieved more than I imagined. At the beginning of the school year I was chosen the senator or the student council of the Extracurricular activities. Now I am planing and preparing the school field trip and the suitable activities. So that is that.
When it comes to my studies. I am excelling academically, my current GPA is 4.3 out of 5.0. My favorite subject is English because we get to discuss and debate about current problems in the world. Also, it is quite easy and pleasant to study it. English is used in each field of life and it is useful to know it. Now we are reading What is the What which is a novel that based on of the Lost Boys in Sudan and their suffering during their difficult journey from South Sudan to Ethiopia. Also, I am more right brainier which means I enjoy subject that relate creativity like theater. After a two days from now, we will be acting Shakespeare's tragic play King Lear. My role of the play is I am acting King Lear himself.

Dear sponsorship I would like to thank you for paying the tuition money.  My name is Khadar Abdi, I like Abaarso School so much than any school in Somaliland. Last term it was really good term because I get more experience than last year. In addition, I adapt Abaarso’s challenge, so I am very happy with that. Last term, I get good GPA that means I made great effort. Over all last term was the best and funniest that I ever get.

Term 2 is going very well. Also I am getting experience and becoming tough and more talented student. Last term I wouldn’t like going to teacher asking for him/her help but this term I do. Instead of that, still I am going to keep working hard to become successful person. Abaarso helped me to achieve my dreams (Also you helped me that). All in all, thank you for you helping me to go through darkness to the light.
