Selected text
Back then, elementary schools were free of charge and it was compulsory to attend them; but you had to pay in order to go to high school. Private high schools had higher tuitions than public schools. There was, for instance, this [Jewish] private high school called Libros, where tuition was higher than in the public high schools. The Jewish high schools were called Cultura [4]. I think they used to charge tuition too, but they stopped during World War II, when the Jewish students were expelled from the public schools.
