Some 200 Lyce students and teachers marched to the Collectivit Thursday morning to protest the Collectivits not replacing defective machine tools for the vocational schools woodworking and carpentry sections since Hurricane Irma. Apparently, there are only two usable machines left. A delegation was received by President Daniel Gibbs following the march (see related story), where it was disclosed the Executive Council had approved a 277,000-euro grant the day before to purchase the necessary machine tools as soon as possible.
