On Tuesday December 6th, the management and staff of the Dr. Martin Luther King School, provided a list of concerns. Minister Jacobs was surprised and dismayed to learn that the challenges being faced had not yet been dealt with when management and teachers requested an urgent meeting on these topics.
Head of DPE, Mrs. Glenderlin Davis-Holiday, alongside the management of MLK school, are currently working on the short-term goals as well as providing an action plan for the long term. The Ministry is also looking into various means to avoid future reoccurrence.
Minister Jacobs would like to ensure the management and staff as well as the parents and students of the MLK School, that the alleviation of their concerns are a priority and preparations are being made to ensure the safety and health of all.
