Basseterre, St. Kitts, May 14, 2014 (SKNIS): Students of the Washington Archibald High School (WAHS) have now been given more time for their studies thanks to Premiere Dental.
The shift system, which was implemented on May 07, allotted students a half a day for their classes. Washington Archibald High would have the morning shift from 7:45 a.m. to 1:15 p.m. and Basseterre High in the afternoon from 1:15 to 6:00 p.m. Premiere Dental stepped in to aid the school by giving them an extra hour and a half of class time in their building at Taylor’s Range, just a couple steps away from the school.
Form 1A2 students Nashaunté Sutton and Tyla Hector stated that they are quite comfortable in the new environment and expressed that the arrangements of the desks and chairs gives the feel of a normal classroom setting.
“We have benefitted because there is extra time,” Nashaunté said. “Class normally ends at 1:15 p.m. and now we have an hour and a half ending at 2:45 p.m. We at the Washington Archibald High School would like to thank Premiere Dental for investing in our education. Thanks for giving us this area and rooms.”
Teacher Dwight Berridge stated that the classes have been working out quite well.
“Teachers are here, the management team are here to assist operation of the classes,” he said. “In terms of discipline, students understand what they have to do and work is being prepared for them. So we are quite satisfied with the extra classes that are being held at Premiere Dental.”
Mr. Berridge commented that the students and teachers alike are enjoying the clean and spacious rooms and are benefiting from the extra classes.
“I am able to come in and reinforce some of the material in the afternoon, to do some revision and prepare students for exams.
The Ministry of Education thanked the company for their kind gesture and its willingness to provide their facilities.
