Class Trip 2008

Although there have been graduations for over 50 years at El Sembrador, this year marks the first high school graduation ever. In the beginning years of El Sembrador there was 6th grade graduations, then there were vocational graduations after the vocational school was opened, then the studies went as far as 9th grade. This year, El Sembrador has taken the studies to a new level and will graduate the first class of high school graduates. We're so proud of the accomplishments this group of boys have made.
We took our graduating Seniors on a class trip this year. It was both educational as well as fun. They each had to participate in many fundraisers from the beginning of the year through August. They were able to accomplish their goal and enjoy their time. They were able to see the waterfalls at Lago Yajoa, visit a national park called Lansatilla in the city of Tela, visit three different malls (in the cities of San Pedro Sula, El Progresso, and Tegucigalpa). The fun part for the students was being able to be at the ocean and pools where we stayed on the North Coast. The students were able to see many parts of their country for the first time. For many it was the first time at the ocean, first time on an escalator at the mall, and the first time to go to the North Coast.
