Pembroke Hall High School Alumni Association

Pembroke Hall High School Alumni Association Pembroke hall School open its doors on September 3, 1969 under the leadership of Mr. W.A. Titus. It accommodates over 1400 students on a shift system. Andrew.

The Pembroke Hall High School is situated on approximately ten acres of land in the
community of Pembroke Hall in St. It is sited close to the Pembroke Hall Primary
School in a community that has residential properties and is bordered by several business
places; the main one being the Boulevard Shopping Centre. The school is a co-educational institution which was established in the late 1960‟s as

a
Junior Secondary School. In 1974, it was upgraded to a New Secondary School, and
thereafter, in 1995, the status was changed to a Comprehensive High school, and later
(2000) it was renamed Pembroke Hall High School. The school is operated on a shift system, and made adjustments three years ago when it
implemented the Six-Day time table. This was introduced in order to reduce the impact of
mitigating factors that prevent the operation of the school on any given day. An aborted
school day is not counted as a teaching day; hence students would not miss the academic
offerings. The student population is mostly drawn from adjoining communities such as Drewsland,
Maverley, Duhaney Park, New Haven, and Riverton Meadows, but students come from as
far as St. Mary and St. Thomas. A number of the communities from which the students
come are categorised as volatile; this factor has contributed to negative perceptions of the
school. Parents with difficulties in financing their children‟s education are usually encouraged to
seek help from the Programme of Advancement Through Health and Education (PATH). The
school augments what is received from PATH in order to cater to needy students.
