UPDATE: The most likely explanation is that Bon Berger De Doman is a typo and that the school is really called Bon Berger de Domond.
Apparently the Clintons' build solar panels on a school in Haiti that doesn't exist
The site visits included the Boucan Carré Health Center, the first clinic to be solarized by SELF; the Lashto Fish Farm, a new extension of the fish hatchery that is now solar powered thanks to NRG Energy and SELF; the Bon Berger De Doman School, a Digicel-funded school with solar power; and finally the new Partners in Health Mirebalais teaching hospital. This hospital, when completed, will have the largest solar installation in the country and will operate almost entirely on solar power.

The only website related to the school is this: http://archive.is/8Mkbw
This links the "school" to this non-profit: http://www.nonprofitfacts.com/FL/Institution-Mixte-Communautaire-Bon-Berger-Inc.html
Which appears to be filled with people from the same family: http://archive.is/JSVIv
And is based in this house in Florida: https://www.google.ca/maps/place/1601+Glenhaven+Cir,+Ocoee,+FL+34761/@28.5762225,-81.5181887,3a,68.7y,171.3h,84.55t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1s9VvdDXzOxvpafqb0TaUnlQ!2e0!7i13312!8i6656!4m2!3m1!1s0x0:0x90561c5f5574813!6m1!1e1
The leader of this "non-profit", Frantz Champagne, works as a TSO at Department of Homeland Security http://archive.is/1KEHV
There is some really weird stuff going here.
Edit- Frantz Champagne is also a court interpreter, speaking Haitian Creole:

Edit -
Not sure what "Bon Berger" means. Institution Mixte Communautaire Bon Berger, maybe unrelated to the Clinton Foundation. However it is rather clear that the Bon Berger De Doman School does not exist. It is only referenced on websites referencing official Clinton Foundation press releases.
Edit -
Institution Mixte Communautaire Bon Berger is unrelated. It appears that "Bon Berger" is in lots of Haitian school names.
Edit-
SELF the NGO working with the Clintons calls the school the "Bon Berger du Domond School":
http://self.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/SELF-2012-Annual-Report.pdf
But why would the Clinton foundation call the school something else, especially if Bill Clinton visited the school. You would think they would get the name right.
Edit- NRG's documents also call the school, "Bon Berger du Domond School": http://www.nrg.com/documents/sustainability/NRG-Projects-in-Haiti.pdf
This may just be a misspelling in the Clinton Foundation press release.
Edit- Most likely explanation is that Bon Berger De Doman is a typo and that the school is really called Bon Berger de Domond.
