Where is the school?

[DarceyJK]

I've read alot about a school that you can visit on one of the excursions to Samana, can anyone tell me where it is or on what excursion it would be on? We would like to take our children there to visit and deliver supplies. We will be on the Pearl on Dec 26th so if I could get anyone's input quickly it would be Very Much Appreciated! Thanks in advance!!

We did a tour with Terrys Tours. There are many schools along the way he could stop at. We did this about 2wks ago with him. :) He is an awesome guide by the way!

We went to Samana & dropped off five backpacks filled with school supplies with the guide for our trip to Playa Rincon. They suggest that you not bring school supplies directly to the schools because it can be very disruptive to the classes & makes the schools the tourist attraction. I strongly suggest checking out this link & getting in touch with D.R.E.A.M. project before venturing schools on your own. Unfortunatly we never met these kids. These photos were sent after we got home.
