Here are a few pictures from the graduation. 18 graduates. 16 were able to make the ceremony. Officials from various places were in place and enjoyed the ceremonies. An interview with the local TV was aired - haven't heard of anyone who watched it but may in the future. Yesterday was spent in Tegucigulpa, the capital, in meetings with the Canadian Embassy, Ministry of Education and the Head of Educatodos (the curriculum we are using). All were extremely positive so we left quite hopeful. We shall see whether the agreements are in place by August as hoped.
Chepe, Gabina and Samuel are cutting the cake. Chepe is the head or our Honduran Board. Gabina and Samuel are mother and son, both graduating. Samuel was heading into gang culture before starting to study. He seems to be turning away from that now that he has something positive to focus on and a chance for a future other than running a machete.
