Fundacion Guanin, a punto de cerrar su centro educativo, por falta de fondo
School history.
Regarding our new public school, name: (Centro Educativo Bilingue Dra. Lynne Guitar), it´s trilingual school, well we teach Spanish, English and French.
That name was given in honor deserves by the North American / Canadian, living in the Dominican Republic, our Guanin Center, President, Dr. Lynne A. Guitar, PHD. Co-founder of the Guanin, Inc., Co-founder of the student agency (SAS), godmother of many and many Dominicans, she has financed their education, protective community of la Piedra and other Dominican communities.
In the last five years that we have worked with these isolated communities of resource-poor people, we have come to realize the necessity of seeking an international school where both Haitian and Dominican can assist without any different of nationality and colors.
Regarding for the DR., Government new school policies. We will no longer be doing a morning program and afternoon program we will instead be doing a normal school day, start classes at 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM. We are changing this due to the Dominican Republic Government. They are enforcing every school program to be conducted this way. We feed 149 kids three times per day, breakfast, lunch and snack.
We started the school with 50 students the last 2 years, now we work with 365 kids from 45 days to 5 years old and 300 families with home visit. This year program we don´t have enough found to run the school those kids and 300 family will be stay home, some of those kids they only have the food we provide them during the school day.
