Lines of children in uniforms walk out of school ground in Danang

This elevated view shows lines of children in uniforms walking out of a school ground in Danang. Children are filing out of the large school building in the back and past a cement wall in the front. They all wear dark pants, white shirts, and cloth hats. Women riding bicycles pass by on the street in front, possibly coming to pick up their children.

Vietnam requires nine years of schooling, and the literacy rate is reported to be over 90% of the adult population.
