Cyril M. Duplessis Sr – Summer Vacation

How did you spend your summers in “A Place Called Desire?”

One thing that she insisted on was that we were educated and were able to communicate with people on a regular basis. When something summertime came, what she would do is the day after we get one day upgrades, so called vacation, and the next day we were opportunities with our assignments for the whole summer with science books, phonics, math and other stuff. It depends on the grade level that you work. But each kid, all seven of us, had an assignment.
