Steve and Linda Lager came to share with us the story of Chepinitas School. The school was started in 2015 by Linda Lager in Veracruz, Mexico with a good friend. This town is the home of Linda's mother, now 92 years old. Her childhood nickname was Chepinitas. They began in one building bought for $5,000 with minimal amenities and a handful of students. Now the school is contained in 9 connnecting buildings and have 52 students enrolled. All donations, from Americans, go to the teachers and the books. The students learn music, english, reading and math. There is a social worker that is on site a couple days a week. One interesting story Linda told us that it took quite a bit of explaining to the families how important is that the kids attend every school day.
