Parents reject Los Alcarrizos high school student transfer

Parents of students at the Juan Ramón Núñez Castillo high school in Los Alcarrizos are protesting the transfer of their children to another school, citing the significant distance from their homes. They have formally requested educational authorities to reverse the decision. The transfer, reportedly ordered by school director César Tomás Pozo under instructions from the District Educativo 15-01, moves students to the Ercilia Pepín high school in Los Calizos. Parents claim the measure was taken without prior consultation and say they have received no justification for the change. Families worry the distance will hinder regular attendance and have appealed to the Ministry of Education to review the decision. They are seeking a solution that keeps students in a school near their community before the next school year begins.
