The village was nearly over the epicenter of the 2010 Haiti earthquake and consequently experienced much damage.[1]
The only building that remained standing after the 2010 earthquake was the kindergarten. At least 54 people were killed, including 50 children.[2]
Educationedit
The village has parochial elementary schools, including St. Michael the Archangel. There are about 1,300 children in school.[3] These are privately funded community schools operating with the approval of the Ministry of Education. They are under the guidance of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Port-au-Prince.
