MAIA
MAIA is redefining the word "school" in rural Guatemala. The organizational model of Colegio Impacto de MAIA obtains the best international educational practices, methodologies, structures and resources from high impact organizations and then contextualizes them. Our teaching model is influenced by educational organizations in the United States that are making significant changes with traditionally underserved populations. These teachings are contextualized and strengthened with the cultural identity of the Young Pioneers, allowing them to develop 21st century skills. Educators and mentors represent MAIA's unique focus, our strategy to break the norm, they come from the same communities as students.
