This year marks Ocean Academy’s 14th Anniversary as the first high school on Caye Caulker. Our student body has grown to 160. When we opened in 2008 one of our hopes was to one day hire our graduates as the teachers and leaders. That has continued to happen! Ocean Academy alumni currently work as office staff, technology assistant and reading mentor.
Covid continues to present challenges, but Ocean Academy continues to step up and meet those challenges. Students are once again attending classes on campus as they were given the option to return to campus or to remain in virtual classes.
The Social Enterprise program is getting back on its feet as tourism continues to increase on Caye Caulker. Students are thrilled to be training to lead bicycle and kayak tours,
With the help of donors like you, Ocean Academy students continue to strive to meet their potential and to follow the path to their best lives.
