Support the Rockhouse Foundation
The Rockhouse Foundation transforms the places where Jamaica’s children learn and supports the great people who teach them.
Rockhouse Foundation has invested over US$6 million to help expand Jamaica’s childhood education system. Since its inception in 2003, the Foundation has completely transformed and modernized six schools: Moreland Hill Primary and Infant Schools, Negril All Age School, Negril Basic School, Little Bay All Age and Infant Schools, Bunch of Stars E.C.I., and Savanna-la-Mar Inclusive Infant Academy (Sav Inclusive), in addition to the complete renovation and expansion of the Negril Community Library.
Sav Inclusive is a brand new school purposely built to service those with special needs in an inclusive environment. This inclusion model, mixed ability, special needs early childhood school addresses a demand that has been expanding dramatically, and for which there are almost no services in the western half of Jamaica.
In July 2021 Jamaica’s Ministery of Education and Rockhouse Foundation signed a new joint commitment to expand the Sav Inclusive school through to 12th grade. Currently educating students from pre-K to 2nd grade, this new commitment means that each year for the next decade the Foundation will be adding a new grade so the current 2nd graders have a path right through high school. The understanding also includes additional adjoining lands allocated from the Catholic Church for construction of the expanded primary and high schools.
