While all public and private schools remain closed in the city of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, students from the Adventist schools are attending online classes during social isolation. In addition to the basic academic subjects, educators also work to help the students understand the importance of health professionals during the COVID-19 pandemic.
In Duque de Caxias, classes remain suspended until May 13, according to the local city hall. However, the Duque de Caxias Adventist College promoted an activity for its elementary school students to write letters to health professionals in the city's municipal hospital network. The project was named “Drops of Gratitude.”
