US School Adopts St. John’s Anglican
posted (January 14, 2015)

Builders are hard at work finishing up a new classroom building on the Compound of Saint John's Anglican Primary School in Belize City. It is a donation from the President and students of Bridgewater State University from Massachusetts in the US.

Now, you may have heard of Peacework and Price Waterhouse Coopers, the US organizations who have an ongoing partnership with the Ministry of Education, but now, the state university wants to assist St. John's Anglican Primary School. It's part of a tripartite agreement between Bridgewater, The University of Belize and St. Johns, and today, the media was welcomed to see the progress on the new classroom.

The Minister of Education told the gathering that this donation is not the only instance of generosity from Bridgewater alumni:

The class room will be finished in 1 or 2 weeks from today, and it will be used by the Standard 1 class.
