Back-To-School Update

 Dust is wiped off desks, curtains are opened and our students’ laughter is heard in the hallways again.

Our 2016-2017 school year has started with 24 first year class students who need sponsors to provide them with one of the two meals a day and, as needed, help for transportation or school supplies. Most of our second and third year class students already have a sponsor. If you wish, you can “adopt” a student for only $35 dollars a month or $420 a year, which represents 25% of the total cost to educate one student.

During summer break our staff was busy getting all the work done before students came back.

Our teachers and Principal spent a week developing new strategies to help our students learn better and more at school since our Mission is to create self-sufficient people who want to improve their lifestyle by continuing their education and also help their community.

Our building was fumigated against cockroaches and termites; we need donations to repair, as soon as possible, the damage caused by the termites as well as some repairs our building needs since it was purchased in the mid 60’s.

Emotional Intelligence Workshop

There was a workshop March 21st – 23rd, most of our students came to school during vacations to work on developing skills and social competencies, personal advancement, their faith in values of excellence, effort, personal and collective spirit of self-improvement.

The students had fun, they danced and most important: they learned to deal with everyday problems.

Teachers helped with the activities and preparing the food.

Here are some pictures of those days:
