Description
The córdoba is the currency of Nicaragua. It is divided into 100 centavos.
The first córdoba was introduced on March 20, 1912. It replaced the peso moneda corriente at a rate of 12½ pesos m/c = 1 córdoba and the peso fuerte at par. It was initially nearly equal to the US dollar. It was named after the Conquistador Francisco Hernández de Córdoba.
On February 15, 1988, the 2nd córdoba was introduced. It was equal to 1,000 1st córdobas. On April 30, 1991 the third córdoba, also called the córdoba oro, was introduced, worth 5,000,000 2nd córdobas.

The Irving Noon-Day Lions conduct several Vision Clinics during the IISD school year. Students are referrd byn their school nurses through the Head Nurse's Office and come to the Irving YMCA to be screened by an Optomitrist on the Lions Sight & Tissue Foundation Vision Van (a 40 foot Blue Bird equipped with 2 doctor stations and other screening equipment). They pick out a frame and the glasses are then delivered to the school in 3-4 weeks. This provides them with better vision in the classroom which has been shown to improve performance.
