Our goal for this school to make it COMPLETELY green. Meaning we want to teach the kids how to use bio-gas, wind power, water power, solar power, etc. So yah, the thought is nice... but the action is not what we were expecting.

There is A LOT of work to be done. We hit our first major road block when we got here and found a little school that we started helping out. We thought, hey yah this is awesome our first step into making this place a little better. Well... when we found the school it sounded like a really high end school "Bilingual, preschool-5th, private, etc" however, when we got there... it was bilingual-ish and preschool-5 sure but the kids were all misplaced (kids that were in 4th should have been in 2nd and kids in 2nd should be in 5th...) and private yah uh hu, except it was whoever wanted to come... soooo, we were a bit disappointed when we arrived. (This is why my parents brought me) I looked at the bright side and said, well look... now we can make it exactly how we want it.

So we started... we helped the teachers get

Students at the school
organized, helped the school get on its feet and that is basically how it started.

Now going on 1 year we are ready to take another step into our goal to make a completely green, bilingual, private, pre-6th grade school.
