By 2004, the school buildings were rehabilitated for a capacity of 400 students. The French section was closed. This was one of the hardest periods for the school, with attrition in its student body resulting from the gentrification process that moved out the inhabitants of its vicinity in a short period of time and the urgent need to rehabilitate the physical facility of the school. The reduction in student enrollment was associated with limited revenues for the school.
