School for young Mexicans socially disadvantaged.

Dear Donor:

Through this report we want to inform you about  progress achieved by the project “Enabling high school for 30 disadvantaged mexicans” during  months of May June and July 2019

Students continued to have access to the high school  online platform “Prepa en Línea B @ UNAM”. During this time they kept studying 3 subjects of the penultimate module of their academic curriculum, which are:

1. Philosophical Problems: Students acquire the ability to reflect on his own life, his environment and his reality.
2. Environment and bioethics: Students reflect on the interactions of Economics, Physics, Geography and Chemistry with the bioethical factors in the fields of energy, water, air and soil so they can critically analyze the political, economic, ethical and social impacts in the use of resources.
3. Capitalism and economic globalization: Students understands the historical development of capitalism from the 12th century until our days, its contradictions, world expansion and its connection with the scientific-technological development, as well as economic, political and social crises.

Average of Academic grades obtained by the students in each subject:

• “Philosophical Problems” average:  7.9
• “Environment an bioethics” average: 6.9
• “Capitalism and economic globalization” average: 7.2

The students were very willing and enthusiastic in their studies. His school performance in these three months was very good, mainly in the matter of “Philosophical Problems” where they demonstrated skills to develop a critical thinking of their own reality, their family and their community.

We believe that each approved subject is one more step to find a future with many opportunities for success for the students of CODAF Centers. That is why we want to show you our satisfaction for the positive response students give and which is reflected in their academic progress. They are aware of their generosity and interest in supporting them, so they strive day by day to improve and move forward safely to complete their high school studies.
