Het eerste schooljaar ging van start in 2002-2003. De motor achter de Molenwiek was Simpha Savelsbergh met hulp van Jeannine Ritter-Ferweda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Simpha Savelsbergh gaf al Nederlandse les binnen de Nederlandse gemeenschap in Atlanta. Samen besloten ze een basisschool op te richten in samenwerking met de Stichting NOB. Deze samenwerking met Stichting NOB legde vanaf het begin de basis voor kwalitatief goed onderwijs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignright size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/old.jpg\" alt=\"Photo of two children posing with a teacher dressed as a historical figure, holding up an empty photo frame as part of a school activity.\" class=\"wp-image-72\" style=\"width:702px;height:467px\" width=\"702\" height=\"467\" srcset=\"https:\/\/demolenwiek.motherblackbird.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/old.jpg 800w, https:\/\/demolenwiek.motherblackbird.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/old-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/demolenwiek.motherblackbird.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/old-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 702px) 100vw, 702px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Al snel groeide de school van 35 leerlingen in het eerste jaar naar maar liefst 75 leerlingen in 2019. Oprichtster Simpha overleed in 2008. Ter nagedachtenis aan Simpha verloten we elk jaar een kinderboek \u2013 het Simpha boek \u2013 onder de leerlingen. Sindsdien &#8211; en nog steeds &#8211; hebben talloze docenten en ouders zich voor de school ingezet en ervoor gezorgd dat de leerlingen met plezier elke week naar school komen om Nederlands te leren.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">De school verwelkomt leerlingen met een Nederlandse en Belgische achtergrond. We zien bij de Molenwiek leerlingen die als kinderen van expat-ouders in Atlanta komen wonen en weer terugkeren naar Nederland, maar ook leerlingen die hier in Atlanta met hun Nederlandse en\/of Amerikaanse ouders wonen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>De Molenwiek does not and shall not&nbsp;<strong>discriminate<\/strong>&nbsp;on the basis of race, color, religion (creed), gender, gender expression, age, national origin (ancestry), disability, marital status, sexual orientation, or military status, in any of its activities or operations.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignleft size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"540\" src=\"https:\/\/demolenwiek.motherblackbird.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/kinderboekenweek-3.jpg\" alt=\"A puzzle put together where a child decorated each piece on their own.
