Abstract

This research analyzes the deficiencies of municipal schools in El Hatillo, a municipality with significant socioeconomic inequalities. It identifies obstacles such as the lack of school transportation, deficiencies in student nutrition, and low teacher salaries. A Public-Private Partnership is proposed to improve educational quality, suggesting tax incentives for companies that sponsor municipal schools.
