Online activities

Online classes/activities were conducted using the Microsoft TEAMS tool until August 17th. After that date, all online actions/activities were conducted by ZOOM. By downloading the application, which is free, students and their families were able to attend classes developed by the team of educators. The meetings were always scheduled at the end of the day, the time when parents and guardians have the greatest availability to participate, in order to encourage the whole family to carry out the activity, increasing the integration and interaction between parents/mothers and children, as well as between the different families that are in the virtual room.

We currently have 314 students, 114 girls, and 200 boys. During this period, no new enrollments were made due to the suspension of classroom activities.
