The Hondnuran community of Santa Rosa has approximately 84 graduating 6th graders and will have over 250 7th, 8th, and 9th graders by 2013. Currently, if these students with to pursue an education beyond 6th grade, they must walk over an hour to the nearest secondary school. The goal of this project is to provide housing for education to Santa Rosa and the thirteen surrounding communities from 1st through 9th grade, as well as a community center space for the people of Santa Rosa.
