This article is in reference to an article written by Camile Roldán Soto regarding the closing of eight schools because they did not meet the federal goverment's requirements, not only in their test scores, but also in the condition of the institution.
When the Govenor, Anibal Acevedo Vilá, was questioned on the fact that the Sub-Secretary of Education, Waldo Torres admitted that the Department of Education was not doing anything about it, the Governor stated that this was "unacceptable", and that he expected a detailed plan from the Secretary of Education, Rafael Aragunde on this matter.
The only one who had the guts to admit the truth was Waldo Torres, and who knows, it might cost his job. The Govenor was put into an embarrassed position, so he passes the buck to Aragunde. In the meantime, the real priority is to get these schools in order; but they are so busy trying to get the heat off themselves, that nothing is being done...."NOTHING" This is politics, my friends.
