      I am not jealous of madame Nicholas, all i am saying is it is a bit odd that there are no opponents to vy for the position year after year and what i thought that the school was is not there is a facade.

    it is a bit odd that each year Mrs. Nicholas is elected unopposed and if an assessment of her school plant is to be made then you’ll find that this school is lacking in many ways. the perception that her schoolis one of the best is only an illusion

      show me a school in dominica that is not lacking something, that is an entire different conversation.

      school has and is contributing to the continued development of our human capital.

      but in fact.. I wont continue

    Mrs Nicholas seems to have a ‘winning legacy’ at the helm of DAT.

    Well done Celia. Obviously you must be doing something right for the membership to re-confirm their confidence in you. Remain brave and strong. Congratulations.
