Education in Bolivia has a divide between Bolivia's rural and urban areas.
Rural illiteracy levels stay high, but the rest of the country becomes increasingly literate.
The public Bolivia school system is a disaster. The schools are not maintained, and many don’t have adequate furnishings or classroom materials.
Many public schools are being supported, maintained, furnished and supplied by non-profit institutions and these are usually in excellent condition.
Elementary and high school students attend school either in the morning or in the afternoon, depending on which shift they are assigned. The Bolivian school year goes from February to November and summer break is in December and January (the two hottest months)

Educación está muy dividida en Bolivia. El sistema escolar es un desastre. Escuelas no están bien mantenidas. Muchos no tienen suficientes muebles o papeles, lápices etc.
