Bayaguana, Monte Plata, RD.– The Government, through the School Infrastructure Directorate (DIE), restarted the construction of the Experimental High School and the extension of the Autonomous University of Santo Domingo (UASD) in Bayaguana, a project that had been paralyzed for more than a decade and will be delivered in mid-2026. The project, located in the Las Flores sector, had been demanded by the community for more than 10 years. Its reactivation was ordered by President Luis Abinader, with the purpose of promoting the educational, social, and economic development of the province of Monte Plata.
