Description:This article analyzes the role that the Costa Rican education system has played in the process of displacement of the Malecu language (spoken in Guatuso, Costa Rica) as an agent which has promoted linguistic hispanization. Besides, it explains why the incorporation of this language as a subject in the curriculum has had little impact on its conservation and revitalization.
