Wind-damaged school remains unrepaired 5d453m
HAVANA, Cuba, December 6 (Roberto Santana
Rodrguez / cubanet.sergipeconectado.com) - The
"Jos Brias Garca"
elementary school, about 8 miles outside
the city of Camagey, was extensively
damaged by a tornado August 13 and authorities
have still not repaired it.
The 62 students who normally attend the
school have been housed since then at the
sector police headquarters and the home
of the area's physician.
The children's parents appealed to the
offices of the Popular Power, or local government,
only to learn that the school had not been
repaired for the 15 years prior to the tornado.
"What they have to do is repair the
school themselves," one of the teachers
told the parents, who feel that's the government's
job.
