Efrain Bautista

Efrain graduated from SJBS' 9th grade in 2007 with high marks in all of his classes, particularly math and science. Efrain was accepted into the Morrazzani Bilingual School in San Pedro Sula. Because Efrain's family did not have the resources to afford the high cost of bachillerato education in San Pedro, Efrain's teachers encouraged him to apply for BECA's Bachillerato Program, which awards one merit-based scholarship each year to a student with exceptional promise. Efrain was awarded the scholarship and thrived at the Morrazzani School during his two years there. He graduated in May 2009 with a 90% average and the award for best English speaker in his grade. Efrain has been taking civil engineering courses and works part-time as an English teacher at the Superacion school in Cofradia.
