The project is the result of a partnership between the Municipality of Sanarate and Cementos Progreso. The result will benefit the students of the Ernesto Chavarría Rivadeneyra Institute, who will have better facilities.
This project includes high quality construction aspects, spaces that provide comfort to students and, above all, solves the most important needs of the establishment with six classrooms and a multipurpose room.
The educational module named Ingeniero Plinio Alberto Herrera Chacón, is part of the Ernesto Chavarría Rivadeneyra Institute, which stands out among the best secondary education centers in the department of El Progreso.
A total of Q2.8 million was invested in the construction of this new educational space, which will benefit 575 students directly and 2,875 people in the community indirectly.
The module’s inauguration included the Minister of Education Claudia Ruíz Casasola de Estrada, who expressed her satisfaction with the public-private partnership between Cementos Progreso and the municipality.
Through this visit, strategic alliances were achieved with the Ministry of Education –Mineduc-, and various projects were discussed, in addition to allocating resources for improvements. Conversations also mentioned the possibility of implementing educational programs such as the Campeche project to raise awareness of its benefits, properties, and uses.
Authorities were spoken to about implementing computer platforms in schools and outlining potential school-meal projects.
The Carlos F. Novella Foundation and Cementos Progreso, through the Social Management unit of the San Miguel Plant, work to generate partnerships and inclusive processes with different social sectors they collaborate with.
Public-private partnerships are part of the company’s sustainability strategy to build together the country where we want to live.
