In 2013, three large solar panels were installed on top of the schoolhouse, bringing electric power — lights and electrical outlets — to both classrooms. We brought two laptop computers, a projector and DVD player, along with a screen and 40 DVDs. Bob spent three days instructing the teachers how to use this equipment.

Two teachers, Gilbert and Stephen, learn to use the laptop we brought in 2013. There is no internet access yet, but a computer and projector allow them to use DVDs for teaching the 325 children as well as the 52 adults who take adult literacy classes.
