Editor: The St Vincent Girlsâ High School (GHS) celebrated its 102nd anniversary on May 8, 2013. Congratulations, thanks and best wishes to the school and everyone associated with it. Many of us who were fortunate enough to attend this auspicious institution are grateful for the education that we received there.{{more}}

I recall Ms Jennie Jacobs bringing to our attention one day that there were many other students in the nation who would willingly trade places with the students at the Girlsâ High School. That bit of information was intended to make us appreciate at an early age that the opportunity that we had was not one to be wasted or taken lightly.
In todayâs world, it is wonderful to see the educational system evolve to be more inclusive and the opportunity of a high school education for all of the nationâs citizens become a reality. Education for all has come a long way and it augurs well for the future of the country. The Girlsâ High School is certainly doing its part when it comes to projecting that which is admirable in the society. May this continue. Per Ardua Ad Alta, GHS.
