Four teachers teach 548 children throughout the day. "If we neglect the children, we are destroying ourselves as a nation.

#TBT to last month, looking over the pilot's shoulder as she brought us in for a landing in #Tissa, #Chad to drop off passengers during our flight from #Abeche. Next stop was #GozBeida to visit the #Jesuit Refugee Service primary school and Jesuit Commons Higher Education at the Margins program at #Djabal #refugee camp. JRS provides #education services at eight camps in eastern Chad.
