Founding Members Drive: 50 years, one register
The school has turned fifty. The Alumni Association is being formed now — and every past student who joins this year is a founding member.
Alumni of Maud McLeod High School, Darliston, at home and abroad.
No dues are payable yet. The Association is being formed. No subscription is collected, and no payment should be sent to anyone, until a board of directors has been elected and a proper bank account opened in the Association’s name.
The categories and amounts shown on this site are proposals for the members to approve. Join now to be counted, to be recorded as a founding member, and to vote on all of it.

1976School founded
Our founding principal
Rev. Noel Keith Monteith, O.D., J.P.
Founding Principal, 1976When Maud McLeod High School opened its doors in September 1976 with 350 students, the man at its head was Noel Keith Monteith. As founding principal he set the tone for everything that followed — a school in the hills of Darliston built on the belief that Determination is the Cornerstone to Success.
His career in education took him on to lead Cornwall College and G.C. Foster College, and his service to Jamaica went further still: a Government Senator from 1993 to 2007, Minister of State in the Ministry of Education, Youth and Culture, a Moravian minister, a sportsman and a Justice of the Peace, honoured with the Order of Distinction.
He passed in April 2013. Two Prime Ministers were among the mourners at his Thanksgiving Service at Carmel Moravian Church, Westmoreland. The Association records his name here first, where it belongs.
