Primary School

SCHOOL - Where you achieve
School began in September of 2004 borrowing on the one room schoolhouse concept of yesteryear, with seven boys and one girl. Since that time, it has grown to a total of nineteen children in four grade levels.

Most of the children entering our school come seriously behind in their studies. In fact, many who have already passed the first and second grades in the Haitian school system are unable to write their own names, let alone perform simple mathematic equations. Thus, the challenges for creating a school that is on par with schools in the first world abound. The renowned Haitian linguist Dr. Yves Dejean lays out a beginning framework for educational reform here [pdf. format in French].

You can play a part in helping us meet these challenges by partnering with our school. Educators with a heart for reaching the children of Haiti in a tangible way can form educational partnerships with our school in Cap Haitien. Churches and individuals can get involved through our school donations program. Speakers of French or English can partner with us to organize summer French or English camps.
