Also, the only food and drink students could consume were bread, crackers and water. Anyone who violated these rules, or went outside the small boundaries set for them, was taken to the ‘concentration camp,’ where they had to write...

  • Transformation at Vallecitos School

    Updated Feb 4, 2005
