Hope rises for Haiti schools

Students anxious as state group works on rebuilding

Posted: March 12, 2010 at 5:16 a.m.

School principal Jean Manesse, left, and priest Pere Desire Fritz, talk with their students at a high school in Sheridan, Haiti about the building collapsing in an earthquake which devastated the country 2 months ago. The school was the first of 44 build in rural Haiti by the Haitian Education Foundation which is based in El Dorado.

The ruins of Frances Landers’ dream of schools for all Haitian children lie cracked and broken in the mountains southwest of Port-au-Prince, Haiti’s capital, but hope for rebuilding is growing stronger every day.
