All schools in Westmoreland, Hanover and St James expected to open September 7

All schools in Region Four are expected to open for the new school term, says Minister of Education, Skills, Youth and Information, Senator Dr. the Hon. Dana Morris Dixon.

While there have been repair challenges at hurricane-damaged schools across the western region, the Minister said that based on assessments conducted by the Ministry, every school in Region Four, which comprises Westmoreland, Hanover and St. James, is expected to open on Monday (September 7).

“Last night, late last night, we were at the Ministry going through every single school, region by region, and state of readiness. The report from Region Four... is that every school will be opened on Monday,” she said.
