These are nearly all the girls who are in first to 6th grade in San Jorge that we sponsor to go to school.  There were two missing from this photo. The younger children did not receive these uniforms. They have pants and jacket. We were thrilled through the school sponsorship to be able to buy new corte ( traditional skirt) new blusa ( blouse) embroidered woven belt and new shoes for each of them to wear in the parade. The parade is on Thursday, April 19th. We just finished sewing up the outfits this afternoon, the girls came with their families, tried them on and we took this beautiful photo of them all. They were all so happy to have new clothes and to be able to participate in the parade. 

If you do not have the uniform you cannot participate in the parade and you then lose some points off your report card. This makes it very difficult for the parents as these outfits are not cheap. The boys we sponsor received pants and shirts, belts and new shoes. The had to pick their outfits up at a different location so we only got  a photo of a few of them with their shoes.
