SCHOOL DAYS
For the children in Haiti, it is a difficult struggle every day because of the gas problems. If gas cannot be bought on the streets, the children must walk to and from school every day. This makes education very difficult. These children make sacrifices every day in order to get an education. Their day starts at 4am. They leave by 6:30am to start their 15-mile journey to school. The streets have become increasingly dangerous, so we are very worried about them, especially for the girls.
Although the private school is more expensive than the public school, we prefer to send them to the private school so that they will get a better education. We do have a few students in the public school.
In the private school the students wear a green and white uniform. The public school students wear blue.
