In Haiti's countryside, schools are in short supply
Posted by: Justina Spencer
 
Chrisner Roche has sent his children to school in Port-au-Prince, far from where he lives, because there are few good schools in Haiti's rural areas.

The plight of Chrisner Roche is a textbook case for all that's wrong with the educational system in Haiti.

As rain pelted the metal roof, Roche lifted specimen jars from a shelf, ticking off their contents and examining the embryos one by one. This was a rabbit, that one a pig. Here was a goat. And here was a whole jar of intestinal parasites, grown long and fat.
