CHILDREN WHO PASS for Alma Parris Memorial Secondary School come September will have even greater chances of soaring to new heights.

That was the word from principal Valdez Francis, who said the St Peter school was making headway in its efforts to construct a curriculum that ensured a well rounded student body.

He said partnerships with the YWCA Breakfast Club and School Meals Department to offer students breakfast and meals also helped to improve performance. (LT)
