View of the back of the original school building

The school was badly damaged during the earthquake. It is hard to see
the scale of the damage in this photo but the back of the building
collapsed. The building is still shifting and is very unstable.

One of the boys from the school, Petrson, was killed when the building
collapsed.

Construction on the new school site had already started. Everyone was
able to seek shelter there right after the earthuake, since it is
across the street. 200 people joined them there. Sherry, who runs the
school, set up a triage station and someone else shuttled the injured
to the hospital.
