SANTIAGO DE CUBA, June 3 (Víctor M. Domínguez, Lux InfoPress)
- Parents' growing complaints over conditions at the schools their children must
attend in Manzanillo, in eastern Granma province, is met with official
exhortations to do more themselves since, they are told, "education is free
and there's nothing more the government can do."
Parents' concerns include lack of books, notebooks, paper and pencils,
scarcity of school furniture, overcrowding in dank classrooms, and labor
instability for their children's teachers. To top it all, there was a recent
outbreak of head lice at the "Enrique Vidal" agricultural polytech, in
the outskirts of the city.
