This is the school building in Grison Garde, out in the northern plain of north Haiti. It really is just a pavilion covered by corrugated tin. I think there were four classes housed in this pavilion that day, each class reciting next to the others. They build this way because it is all they can afford, and it allows the breeze to blow through. On days when it rains, there is no school anyway, because the mud gets too bad to walk to school.
