SINFOROSO APONTE is a Title I public elementary school that is part of the PUERTO RICO DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION school district, located in BARRANQUITAS, PR with about 170 students offering grade levels from Kindergarten to 5th Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. With about 15 teachers, SINFOROSO APONTE has a student/teacher ratio of about 11:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

Escuela SINFOROSO APONTE is a public educational institution located in the Quebradillas neighborhood of Barranquitas, Puerto Rico. Situated along Highway 152, the school serves the local rural community, providing foundational education to students in the surrounding mountainous region. As is typical of schools in the Barranquitas area, it functions as a vital social and educational hub, focusing on the academic and personal development of its student body while maintaining a connection to the specific cultural and geographical identity of the central region of the island.

The school operates under the jurisdiction of the Puerto Rico Department of Education and is categorized as a facility that supports the K-12 public school system. Being located in a more secluded sector of Barranquitas, the institution plays a critical role in providing accessible education to students who might otherwise face challenges with transportation to larger urban centers. Through its presence in the Quebradillas community, Escuela SINFOROSO APONTE facilitates essential learning opportunities, fostering student growth within a close-knit, community-oriented environment.
