...Political development is part and parcel of this process of life and work. When the Cubans speak of political development, they are not talking only about learning to support a socialist economy or to oppose imperialism. As Lazara explained, that part came automatically, Pedro says, "I always supported the Revolutionary laws as they were created, and my father taught me to understand them, so there was nothing complicated about becoming a socialist." He also saw that the bourgeoisie and the American corporations did not support the laws which diminished their profits. Fidel came to Pedro's school and his workplace...

...Agassiz School is old (build in 1915) and is scheduled to be replaced by a new school in 1971. Though some Agassiz parents hope construction of the new school can be coordinated with the development of another Harvard-owned parcel of land in the area and others have suggested a community school on Shady Hill itself, it is difficult to begin planning for the new school when no one can yet tell how many children will be attending it as a result of the Shady Hill construction...
