Meet the principal

“I am Juana Manueles, the director of Centro de Educación Básica Gubernamental Dr. Ramón Rosa N°2. Academically, we are confronted with the challenge of enhancing performance in Spanish and mathematics. Our goal is to integrate extracurricular activities that foster sports, education, and physical and emotional well-being, thereby reinforcing teaching capabilities in drafting evaluation tools, planning, and project development at both the classroom and institutional levels.

For the community, our school represents a vital necessity, granting students access to quality education. It serves as a fundamental opportunity for children with limited economic resources, ensuring the entry, continuity, and completion of their academic journey within the educational system.

We aspire to have optimal physical, logistical, and technical teaching conditions. The presence of and continuous communication with entities and authorities are essential to facilitate the development of innovative, inclusive, and high-quality projects. Thus far, through collaborative efforts with parents and municipal authorities, we have managed to temporarily address the diverse needs we encounter.”

—Principal Juana Manueles
