Colegio Acuacateco is a K-12 school in Aguacatán, Guatemala, a rural and impoverished area in the country’s mountainous region. Poor economic conditions here cause many residents to search elsewhere for work. To prepare the next generation to lift up Aguacatán, the community has invested much in Colegio Acuacateco.
