Benjamin Harrison School

Now named Benjamin Harrison Vocational School, it is located on PR-14, José de Diego Avenue in Cayey.

After the occupation of the United States in Puerto Rico and identifying illiteracy as one of the main problems in the island, the government developed a program for the construction of schools among other projects.

The Benjamin Harrison School was finished by October 23, 1902 with a total cost of $8,600.00 invested in its construction ($315,300 2024 dollars).

In the front, it had two stairways providing an enormous balcony connecting two upstairs classrooms.

The first floor had a carcade (corridor) or a hallway that connected the front yard through four stairways.
