MY HIGH SCHOOL: GABRIEL GARCÍA MÁRQUEZ
Gabriel García Marquez was a Colombian Novelist, Nobel Prize for Literature in 1982 and one of the great masters of universal literature. Our institute has the honor of taking his name to somehow remember and honor this great writer.
Is an institute like any other located in a neighborhood of Madrid, Hortaleza.
Upon entering through its main door, a bit withdrawn from view, you see a parking lot where teachers leave their cars. After crossing it, you arrive at the main door, meeting front with secretariat. Once passed this test and with the approval of the residents of this small room, you have access to the playground. The playground is divided into two zones, a more secluded area and a bit more empty with volleyball nets, and a larger one with a soccer field, basketball and a cafeteria. After a great war of almost survival in which the manners are set aside, you can (if the bell does not interrupt you) get something to eat.
The institute has 3 floors in total, and is divided into two buildings: the high school and the ESO one.
Once you enter the door for the first time, you know that you have 4 or 6 years ahead of you in that place, going up the same stairs, sitting in the same chairs, entering every day at the same time and interacting with the same people.
