First High School Graduating Class 2023 2024 - 2025 Ninth Graders

 Our school did not yet have a high school component when our first Ninth graders were promoted, so we acquired scholarships for them to continue their studies in the city. Since then, students have gone on to learn a trade in vocational schools, 2 have graduated from nursing school, 2 are studying civil engineering, 1 graduated from Teachers College, and 1 was awarded a 4-year scholarship to study agronomy in Earth University in Costa Rica. 
                                                                                                                                                                                                                      We are proud of all of them.
