Jardín de Niños Telésforo López

The first Kindergarten of the city of Caborca ​​Sonora today celebrates its 66th Anniversary of Foundation The Telésforo López Kindergarten was founded on January 5, 1955, therefore this day is celebrating the 66th Anniversary of its creation. Thanks to the Club de Leones de Caborca, A.C. The property was built, they were in charge from the purchase of the land, building two classrooms, a multipurpose room and their address. I received the appointment as director at the age of 20, we started with 300 students aged 3, 4, and 5 years old, all of the Caborca ​​for children at that time because it was the first Kindergarten in our city. It is named after Telésforo López - an agronomist originally from New Mexico, United States - who died in those days and was a member of the Lions Club, very active, so the members of the Club unanimously wanted to name the Garden after his person. The first appointed educators were María Dolores Ortiz Lizárraga and Carmen Amavizca Cota, later, Alma Norma Pino Cáñez, Idolina Contreras Sotelo, Ana Denia Ramírez Carmelo, as well as Jesús Cañedo Vanegas as the first janitor. Following the months of the beginning of work, on November 19 of the same year (1955) the Board of Directors of the Telésforo López Kindergarten was formalized, for which the representatives of the State Government were received in our city.
