In celebration of International Women’s Day, The True United Sisters Organization honoured Mrs. Monica White, Acting Principal , Dinthill Technical High School in stellar fashion. She was praised for her more than 40 years of dedicated service in the field of education and contribution to the development of the Linstead community.

A true champion to the cause for academia Mrs. White has become the ‘mother hen’ of the Dinthill School community. Never weary, always abounding to the needs of her students whether it be in the classroom or from the administration desk. A hard working, dedicated, enthusiastic, enigmatic natural woman of substance and class.

The Dinthill Alumni Association Jamaica takes great pleasure in congratulating her in this global wave of management and outstanding leadership.

Now filling the top spot as Principal Mrs. White, the wife of Mr. Lloyd White holds a Bachelor’s Degree in Language and Communication from the University of the West Indies, and a Master’s in Educational Leadership and Management from the University of Technology. She started teaching at the tender age of 16 years old when she got her first job as a pre-trained teacher in 1974, filling a post at Garden Hill All Age School in St. Catherine while the substantive occupant of the position was on leave for a term.

She later taught at James Hill Infant School in Clarendon; then at Lluidas Vale Primary School in St. Catherine. In addition, she commenced her tenure at Dinthill Technical High School in Linstead, St. Catherine, in 1986. Since then, she has served in various positions at that institution.
