Wow, Secundaria Federal Juan de la Barrera! That takes me back. 2008... I graduated from there in '06, so things might be a little different. I remember Mrs. Rodriguez – she was a legend. Those tests… brutal. But yeah, sneaking off to the beach? Classic Cancun. I doubt they've cracked down too much on that, haha. The school itself… I remember it being pretty run-down even back then. Probably hasn't improved much, honestly. Maybe a fresh coat of paint? But I wouldn't bet on it. More likely, it’s still got that same slightly chaotic, wonderfully Mexican energy. It’s probably still buzzing with students. You'll probably recognize the basic layout, but expect some updates or renovations. I'd recommend just driving or walking by if you’re feeling nostalgic – see what you think! Good luck with your trip!
