In Guatemala, the majority of high schools are private and very costly to most Guatemalan families. These private high schools, however, offer a variety of "careers" or vocational routes. In Huehuetenango, there is approximately only one public high school where students can choose to study teaching or public administration. With a high school degree, a Guatemalan can obtain a job as a teacher, clerk, accountant, etc.
