Congratulation to Najeh and precious from the st Martin’s primary school. Great work girls missed #1 but start to get ready for 2016 secondary lower school
Congrats all!!! Catholic schools rocks. Al you were fierce!!! Go CHS. Love the competition but don’t like the format it limits the number of students that can participate. It says good things about the top students but it may not represent where most students are.
Kudos to the St. Mary’s Academy. You guys made us proud by winning both the lower & upper secondary competitions. You also mastered the mental Math segment. That is a record that will remain in the books for a lifetime. Well it seems that SMA also represents the Smartest Mathematicians Alive. Congratulations!
Congratulations to St John’s Primary; congratulations to the teachers who worked with them to prepare them.
More to come.

Congratulations to all the schools, but i want to give a big thumbs up to The Roseau Primary School. This school has been showing excellent progress and I must commend the Principal Ms. Greta Roberts and her teachers for doing such a wonderful job. May God continue to richly bless the students and staff of the Roseau Primary School.
This is so true! Roseau Primary is making such great strides.
Congratulations to all the students! You are all winners.
Great job to the host and the coordinators.
I’m a constant listener in Miami.
This only proves what we ALL knew all along and fail to recognize….SMA (Smartest Men Alive) was, is and will remain the nation’s most prestigious secondary school for the foreseeable future. “St. Mary’s Alma-Mata hail to thee oh hail we raise our voice to glorify thy name wherever we may be”. Just a reminder that this is the alma-mata of the great Dr. Fontain. We love you doc, and does SMA.
” I AM NOT FOR CAHNGE AT SMA; ARE U”
Assertive, NOT Agressive!
But allu so proud of Dr Fontaine why he not the leader of the party??? Everytime allu have to push credentials allu using him,,,,, So he looking good on paper but not good enough to be party leader or PM? I just want to know
@confused! What really is all you problem with our leader he is like a thorn under all you skin. You all invited him to come into the race now he is here at your invitation. So just relax, we have a slate of competent men and women on our team. By the way “we love our leader”.
I listen, to the competition on DBS all the children are smarter than me. It took me more the 30 seconds to get an answer. Congratulation to all the Students.
