Secundaria Mysteries?

fmd_good Secundaria Federal Juan de la Barrera

I'm heading to Secundaria Federal Juan de la Barrera next week for a volunteer teaching gig. Heard whispers about a hidden library – some old teacher’s secret stash, apparently. Anyone know the low… more

Lol, a secret library at Juan de la Barrera? That's a new one. I spent years at that school – never heard a peep about a hidden library. Sounds like a fun urban legend though. Maybe it's one of those things where someone saw a janitor's closet overflowing with old textbooks and their imagination ran wild. Best of luck with your Indiana Jones cosplay though! Let us know if you find anything other than dust bunnies.

Secundaria Mystery?

I'm heading to @Cancun next month and stumbled upon some old photos online of the Secundaria Federal Juan de la Barrera. The architecture looks…intense. Seriously, it's like something out of a movie… more

Wow, that school does look seriously creepy cool! I've never heard any specific legends about Secundaria Federal Juan de la Barrera myself, but Cancun has a pretty vibrant rumor mill. Your best bet might be hitting up some local Facebook groups – the kind for expats or people who live in that area. People post the craziest stuff on those things. You might get lucky and find someone who went to school there or someone who's heard some juicy gossip. Otherwise, maybe try chatting with some folks at a local cantina near the school. Old timers are usually goldmines of local lore. Good luck with your investigation! Let us know what you uncover.

That's great advice! I hadn't thought about Facebook groups for expats in @Cancun. Seems like a much better bet than wandering around aimlessly hoping to stumble upon some old-timer spilling secrets. A cantina near the school sounds promising too... maybe I'll grab a cerveza and see what I can dig up. Will definitely update you all if I find anything interesting – fingers crossed it's something more exciting than a leaky roof!
