$1.6b for long-overdue fixes at three west Kgn high schools

A total of $1.6 billion is being allocated to three high schools in the Kingston Western region for long-overdue upgrades, Education Minister Senator Dr Dana Morris Dixon told their principals on Thursday.

Morris Dixon, who made the disclosure at the Kingston Western Principals’ Awards function, identified the three schools as Denham Town High, Kingston High, and St Andrew Technical High (STATHS).

Morris Dixon said Kingston Western Member of Parliament Desmond McKenzie had long advocated the need for educational support in the constituency. Now, Denham Town High is set to receive funds to assist with the rebuilding of its facilities.
