Schoolboy at home

In this photo, we see a student at his home.

In Honduras, only 43% of students complete primary school.  Primary school consists of grades 1 through 6. 

Only 30% of Honduran youth can afford to go to high school, which consists of grades 7-12.  And only 8% ever go to university. 

Education, like healthcare, is a major problem in Honduras.  Students do the best they can, but the resources are simply not there for the majority of the population.
