Good for Education in Pedregal Alto: The families of the children who study at the La Independencia school are engaged in small-scale coal mining, transporting coal and other materials, or planting coriander and beans, among other products. With the Escuela Nueva model, these children have formal education close to home. Thus, they are more protected, in a friendly environment and tailored to their needs.
