Jaime Torres Bodet Telesecundaria

The teacher momentarily took over the direction of the school, welcoming Journey North, expressing gratitude for the visit. Teachers at schools nowadays consider Journey North a very educational program for students being the future owners of their lands, the future Ejidatarios having learned to care on Monarchs Habitat, and in general, contributing to keep a healthy ecosystem in our región.

These students tthoroughly enjoyed the letters and gifts received from students in Canada and Mexico! Also, two books were donated to the school: "The Little Prince", and a wonderful illustrated Chez Manual and a Chez game. Break time from 11-11:30 to eat, play or simply rest.

This school is located at a, say, “third belt” level territory from El Rosario Sanctuary to which It is near (3 km. away). Parents and grandparents of children in this school, Ejidatarios from this community, have somehow more restricted rights to working or being actively related to any of the employment generated at El Rosario Sanctuary during the Monarchs Season, however, they make their own living ploughing their lands and farming. Fathers and grandfathers are active workers in the construction industry in towns nearby.
