During a visit to Cayey Christian Academy, Cire2n students presented interactive demonstrations to the whole school. There were students from all ages attending and participating in the demonstrations, from prescholars to high schoolers. The group that visited the school is led by Marielys Torres Díaz and is made up of another five Cire2n students.
