Colegio San Francisco de Asis(high school) is located on the small island
of Santa Cruz in the spectacular and historic Galapagos Islands. Citizens of
the Galapagos islands are often isolated from educational opportunities
because of their physical distance from the mainland.
Learning English is a very important economic tool for the habitants of the
islands in order to participate in the local and tourist economies and
improve their quality of life. The school educates children and teenagers and
prepares them to be savvy protectors of their local environment which is the
principal attraction.
