Technical School in São Paulo

This technical school in São Paulo was so fun! I really enjoy talking to the students that were present and helped us. There was this one alumni that was there who goes to the university of São Paulo who now works at the school as well as goes to college. Faby and I had many conversations with him discussing how the school works. I think it’s very interesting. How at the end of your high school experience you have a certificate in working at a job of your choice not only did we talk to the alarm but we also talked to some of the students that were in a classroom, this one boy with a Sesame Street shirt on was very curious and really wanted to talk to us so he walked straight up to us and started asking questions on why we were there how we felt about the politics in America and they were some very intelligent kids.

We had a chance to check out the classrooms and the floors. They have 3-D printers there and a lot of like access to newer technology. The kids seemed very grateful and worked hard to get into a school like that. I talked to some kids in the first class where we were in and they talked about how a public school and a school like that is different. It’s a privilege to go to school like this one. Lastly I wanted to bring up these two boys that were absolutely obsessed with Lizzie. They were singing and dancing, and they were honestly the life of the party. This technical school was a very fun experience and I’m so glad that I was able to go there.
