Computer Lab
One of the best investments we made nine years ago, was to start a computer lab where now over 200 students have two hours of instruction per week. Students from third grade begin with computer basics and the mastering of the keyboard with all ten fingers. As they progressed, we have students from seventh and eighth grade mastering Power Point, Word and Excel.
The Bolivian Children's Fund provides all the funds for this program, from instruction, materials, maintenance and upgrade of the computers.

We are delighted to have two graduate professors in computer science teaching at the school who assure us a very good instruction.

I was there to observe the progress of these students and I felt so grateful for all of your help that makes this project so valuable to benefit all of the students. Thank you!
