President Luis Abinader opened today, Sunday, the roof of the Antonio Garabitos Arts Educational Center, located in the municipality of San Cristóbal. The work, with an investment of RD$26.6 million, belongs to the School Infrastructure Directorate and aims to strengthen sports, recreational, and community activities of the 457 secondary students that the center serves.
A space for integral development
The infrastructure offers a protected area where students can practice sports and participate in physical activities without being exposed to the climatic conditions of the territory. The Minister of Education, Luis Miguel De Camps, explained that more than 99% of public educational centers in the country operate from the beginning of the school year and that the authorities continue working on the remaining ones through maintenance and adaptation interventions.
Response to the community
The demand for suitable installations arose from the local community and the work will allow students, athletes, and residents to have a safe place to develop their talents and strengthen their ties with their environment. Yohanny Alejandra Vega Ceballos, a fifth-grade secondary student, thanked the construction of the roof and highlighted the importance of having a space to practice sports and develop skills.
Ceremony with blessing
During the inauguration, the priest Francis Montilla, of the Sacred Heart Parish, blessed the work and asked for the well-being of President Abinader and the Dominican population. The event was attended by student representatives and local authorities.
