The broad spectrum of education in Ghana

During this week of 100 degree days, we have ridden 1 hour cross country on the motorcycle to visit a remote, mud walled primary school.  Over 100 students were in attendance, there was one, young male teacher.  Later in the week we walked to a private primary and junior high school not far from the main road with a collection of cement buildings, and assortment of teachers, and a playgound.  The junior high students were learning to solve quadratic equations.  The contrast in learning environments was striking.
