Excellence with a Higher Calling
This year’s Primary Exit Profile (PEP) results have placed several Seventh-day Adventist institutions firmly among Jamaica’s top-performing primary schools. Through faith, discipline, and academic rigor, Adventist schools continue to prove that Christian education produces not only spiritually grounded students but also academic champions.
