Question No. 13: Do you currently attend school?
[Questions 13 and 14 were asked to persons 4 years old and over]

School attendance refers to both schools of regular education (official or private) and schools of vocational character that are not incorporated into the regular system of education (schools of 1, 2, or 3 years that teach dressmaking, beauty, mechanics, electricity, etc.). Consider as school attendance, attending any "pre-school" or "children center", and schools for people with physical or mental disabilities.

Mark with an "X" the corresponding circle in agreement with the response of the enumerated person.

If at the time of the Census the schools are closed for vacation, strikes, lack of teachers or another reason, and the enumerated person is a student awaiting the resumption of classes, "yes" should be marked in question 13.
