The existing school building is a 60′ x 26′ structure built by the villagers 35 years ago. It has holes in the roof and no ceiling. The teachers’ cottage is bamboo and in bad shape. All 4 teachers stay in the village. To meet these needs, we built a new 60′ x 30′ school and a 30′ x 12′ teachers’ cottage this year.
