  • Nicolas Christian School Education Program

    IN 2024, THE SCHOOL HAD 172 STUDENTS. 25 STUDENTS GRADUATED FROM NICOLAS CHRISTIAN SCHOOL'S HIGH SCHOOL AND 23 STUDENTS GRADUATED FROM OUR JUNIOR HIGH. SINCE 2015, WE HAVE HAD 108 STUDENTS GRADUATE FROM HIGH SCHOOL AND 160 GRADUATE FROM JUNIOR HIGH. NICOLAS CHRISTIAN SCHOOL PROVIDES HIGH QUALITY RIGOROUS EDUCATION IN CONFORMANCE WITH GUATEMALAN MINISTRY OF EDUCATION STANDARDS. THE NICOLAS CHRISTIAN SCHOOL PROVIDES SAFE TRANSPORTATION FOR STUDENTS FROM THEIR VILLAGE TO THE SCHOOL IN A NEARBY TOWN WHICH IS APPROXIMATELY 40 MINUTES AWAY AND BACK HOME AGAIN AT THE END OF THE DAY. THESE STUDENTS LIVE IN A REMOTE AGRICULTURAL REGION IN THE HIGHLANDS OF GUATEMALA WHERE MOST YOUNG PEOPLE DO NOT HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO RECEIVE HIGHER EDUCATION BEYOND THE SIXTH GRADE FOR FINANCIAL REASONS. IN THIS REGION MIRED IN POVERTY, ONLY 5-13% OF THE RURAL POOR GRADUATE FROM HIGH SCHOOL AND LESS THAN 1% ATTEND UNIVERSITY. DUE TO POOR ROAD CONDITIONS, WE ARE OPERATING A SATELLITE SCHOOL IN A REMOTE VILLAGE AND DIGITAL CURRICULUM FROM NICOLAS CHRISTIAN SCHOOL.
