Scarleth Pérez waits to say grace before eating lunchin her first grade classroom at the Florencio Jimenez school. The school is one of the new "Bolivarian" Schools which are part of President Chavez's Education Reform. The new Bolivarian Schools keep students for an entire day, as opposed to a half day, feed the students lunch and offer programs like drama, art and music. While President Chavez touts his programs that benefit the poor, many point to a rising poverty rate and shrinking economy and claim the programs fail to substantially help.
