The Undersecretariat of Education of the Municipality of Concordia, in close collaboration with the Departmental Directorate of Schools, has undertaken a coordinated effort to ensure the transport and educational continuity of children affected by the recent floods triggered by the rising of the Uruguay River.
"The floods have created an emergency situation that has significantly impacted the life of the local community, displacing numerous families from their homes and causing the evacuation of several populated centers," stated the Undersecretary of Education, Carlos Gatto.
In response to this urgent need, the Municipal Undersecretariat of Education, in conjunction with the Departmental Directorate of Schools, through the Coordinator of Supervisors, Néstor Maschio, has launched a comprehensive plan to facilitate the transport of children who are housed in the various Evacuation Centers, thus guaranteeing the continuity of their educational process. This joint effort seeks to minimize interruptions in learning, providing them with stability and emotional support during such a challenging time.
"Following a provision by Mayor Francisco Azcué in light of this difficult situation that the city is going through, we reaffirm our commitment to the community of Concordia and to the fundamental right to education for all children and adolescents," affirmed Gatto. "We will continue working in a coordinated and supportive manner to accompany the affected families and ensure that no child is left without attending classes."
The Undersecretariat of Education of the Municipality of Concordia appreciates the collaboration of the Mixed Technical Commission of Salto Grande (CTM), who have provided mobility belonging to the institution for the transport, to School No. 23 “Rep. Oriental del Uruguay” who have offered places for the children located in the evacuation centers in the area, and to all educational institutions for their flexible collaboration in the face of this delicate situation.
