A distinguished accomplishment is a hundred (100) per cent pass Grades One to Three in twentyone (21) subjects of the twenty-eight (28) offered at the College at the CSEC level and ninety (90) per cent or more in five (5) other subjects.

The diligence of these students and their parents’ involvement in their academic journey has certainly been compensated.
