School Materials Suffer Rain Damage
Because the school windows were not fully enclosed, the school faced a big challenge during the rainy season in that rain would flood into the classrooms through the open windows and damage all of the learning materials for the children.
New Windows Preserve Learning Materials
The donation from Luena Foundation was used to purchase and install glass in all of the windows and doors of the classroom buildings. This allows the school to close windows securely during the rainy season in order to protect classroom materials from water damage.
