L'attalaye Elementary School

Mary Babcock Christian Elementary School of L'Attalaye

There is a Haitian Saying, "Kote Gen kou pa gen kolye" which means where there is means there isn't needs. This can be used to describe the village of L'Attalaye. With more than 2,000 kids in need to go to school about only 200 can afford to go to the small state school. The rest and their parents want to be in school but there is no school to go to.

Because of our school, kids and parents in L'Attalaye are now saying, "Kote gen kou kolye" where there is need there is means. In L'Attalaye kids come to learn and they come to eat.
