FAHIMA NASRY

Fahima Nasry never got the chance to go to school in Pakistan, where she grew up. Here, her husband works as a parking attendant and at night studies for his high school equivalency. “Everyone in my family is a student,” she laughs. “My children help me with my English homework. The two youngest fight over who will get to help me.” She comes to the co-op twice a week, after ESL classes. “I miss it when I’m not here. I love to learn.”
