Manchester High School Alumni Association Atlanta Chapter
History
Manchester High School located in Mandeville, Jamaica W.I. was established in 1855 from funding made available by the Vere Trust. In 1856, the first Trustees were appointed and the school was open at premises (the former location of old Manchester Public Library) adjacent to the Parish Church in Mandeville, the property was acquired and a school building was erected in 1861. Up to 1921 only boys attended the school at the above location, the girls campus was located in a separate building. The present site at Perth Road was acquired from the Anglican Church.
Our Story
Established in 2006 in Stone Mountain, Georgia, our Alumni Chapter was formed
specifically to support the At-Risk Program at Manchester High School. This program
aids students who face obstacles to completing their education, such as financial
constraints or challenging family circumstances. Your contributions assist these students
in purchasing school supplies and meals, covering transportation expenses, external
examination fees, medical costs, and school-related fees including graduation expenses.
Since our inception we have served many students through our annual donations. The
donations are made through annual fundraisers such as walkathons, formal dinner dance,
raffles, sponsors and generous donations from the Atlanta community.
The Atlanta Chapter of Manchester High School Alumni appreciates your support for the
At-Risk program at our alma mater in Manchester, Jamaica. We are a non-profit
organization, and our tax ID number is 56-2633985. Please donate to a worthy cause if
and how you can.
