Ground Broken for Centro Escolar Mexico

This morning in Corozal, Prime Minister Said Musa and Mexican Ambassador Arturo Trejo broke ground at the site where the new Centro Escolar Mexico will be built. The $1.4 million project will include new classrooms and an information technology lab for what is described as a technical and vocational school. There are plans to build additional facilities such as a gymnasium and auditorium in the future.

The Centro Escolar Mexico will be an addition to Escuela Secundaria Mexico which was built in November of 1982 in fulfillment of a pledge from the Mexican government. About 25 years later, Centro Escolar Mexico will be in furtherance of that promise.

The Escuela Secundaria Mexico has an enrollment of 500 students.
