Families housed at the Dominica Grammar School have finally been moved into temporary housing?

​Families that were housed at the Dominica Grammar School following hurricane Maria, have finally been moved into what is being described as ‘temporary housing’, to allow students of the Dominica Grammar School to return to school for the first time since Hurricane Maria.
 
Education & Human Resource Development Minister Petter Saint Jean, stated at a ceremony of Friday January 19, 2018, that the Ministry feels it has accomplished its mission after moving persons from the school into temporary housing, so that students could resume their schooling.
 
St Jean said, “I am happy to announce that as of this morning, three hundred first and second formers of the Dominica Grammar School are now back at school full time. We have finally achieved our goal of providing temporary housing accommodation for more than twenty families who were housed at the Dominica Grammar School, and as of today the students will be back to full sessions at the DGS”.
 
He added that all students at both secondary and primary levels are back in school following Hurricane Maria. “We owe a debt of gratitude to the Ministry of Social Services, the Ministry of housing and the cabinet of Dominica, for working with us and ensuring that every Dominican child can be back at school. We have achieved getting all our students back at school on both primary and secondary level. So all our students are back in one way or the other, and we are now tackling the early childhood level. And I can only hope that as we work together to ensure that as we develop the young people, the public will realize the task of nation building is even more challenging in this post Maria era”.
