We are again appealing to the generosity amongst our alumni community, wellwishers and friends to help us achieve our goal in this endeavor. Our deadline is the end of this month (June 2016) and while it seems like a daunting task, we have come through in a pinch before, hence we can do it again. No donation is considered too small or for that matter too big. Challenge your classmates to beat their contribution and make a fun task of it all. How many times have you heard someone, upon returning from a trip to Portie, express We are almost half way through the year and we anticipate your continued involvement in our activities. The Columbus Day Weekend Cruise is foremost on the minds of some of us but we have other events that may attract your interest.

I venture to say (tongue in cheek) that economics played a significant role in the decision to make the move. We can‟t have the best of both worlds, that is the simply awe inspiring and beautiful environment that most of us grew up in and also realizing that the avenues for development are limited, as it relates to career and financial growth. So we are here, and we visit the land of our birth, and we come back to America or England or wherever we come back to, and we complain and lambast every ill that befalls us in our homeland. Many times we don‟t do it publicly, lest we risk the tongue ashing from our comrades who love Jamdung till dem dead, and don‟t want to hear any negative talk about YARD, however many times we do so on the social media platforms under pseudonyms. Regardless, we feel justified in any observations we make, even if we draw the ire of friends and family. So we are here, and we have all the solutions that befall our social, political, educational systems on our island. Taking me back to the issue of scientific studies. Has any been done to verify the direct contributions Alumni have made to their alma maters. We know the amount is significant, but for those directly involved with organizations that reach out directly to contributors within their respective communities, it‟s comparable to pulling teeth. It is different however for individuals giving back and supporting family members directly, building homes and investing in business ventures. This has always been a major source of funding for our island. Large conglomerates have benefited and grown significantly from remittances, hence it‟s benefited and grown significantly from remittances, hence it‟s not for the lack of resources in our diaspora communities. Giving back to alma mater, directly or not, is a different issue as culturally we see educational development as governments‟ responsibility, hence no urgency to contribute. That is not the way it is anymore as government resources are limited and disbursement of funds to schools is actually worse than pulling teeth. Long gone are the days when the Ministry of education would fund all and sundry activities undertaken on behalf of the schools, and principals were just Bushas overseeing discipline and staff personnel issues. A modern principal is akin to a C.E.O of a major corporation, juggling all facets of human resources, budget and plant maintenance. We are hesitant because of the experience in public affairs of corruption with government and public officials, but we can be circumspect when we choose to contribute and demand accountability of the organizations with which we associate. TAATHS has been at the forefront of meaningful engagement with Titchfield and its environs and we constantly try and find ways to reinvent our approach to GIVING BACK. See more of what we do at www.titchfieldhigh.com I say all of this to reiterate the point that we need to be supportive of the associations that display transparency and accountability and while we will not be able to change the world we certainly can clean up the corner we know. GIVING BACK…STARTS WITH GIVING Walk good PACA TAATHS Salutes Charles Berbick with heartiest Congratulations!!! The last thirty years at the same hospital has been a patient and determined quest towards service excellence. Charles says that he has been rewarded in personal growth, education and priceless experience, for which he is proud and extremely grateful. His role as a Radiologic Technologist (Cardiac) is the embodiment of service to the healthcare of patients in our local community as, also, national and international visitors. The "caring touch" to thousands of adult and pediatric patients gave him the most satisfaction, and, to be a party to their healing process gives the greatest fulfillment. Charles says, with great humility, “I have been honored to be allowed to be a team member in the Jackson Health System, where miracles are made daily”.

We managed to plant several trees and flowers throughout the school, put up a picket fence and a garden at Block H/Portmore giving the compound a new and refreshing outlook. We intend to continue these efforts in the summer and next school year. Language Laboratory We have written a proposal which seeks to establish a Language Laboratory similar to our Mathematics Lab. The intention is to equip a room at the school with the necessary tools to improve the language skills of students in a specialized way. We expect that through this facility more of our students will master the skill-sets necessary in those subject areas resulting in improved performances in both internal and external examinations. We are now seeking support for this proposal. Choir Although we didn‟t enter the All Together Choir Competition this year our Choir continues to do well in the JCDC competitions. We received 2 gold, 8 silver and 3 bronze medals in the parish finals. We also received a national award in the reggae category and are in the finals of the Nation Children‟s Gospel Song Competition. Athletics Our athletics team represented us at the annual Boys and Girls Athletics Championships with approximately ten (10) team members. At the end of the championships we managed three (3) points from a single competitor Shanice Burrell, who placed 6 th in the Girls Class 1 Long Jump. These 3 points gave us a placement of 23rd out of 114 schools. Table Tennis We continue to dominate this competition among high schools in Jamaica. We are the current holders of the U19 Boy and U16 Girls All Island Titles and also the holders of three (3) of four(4) Rural Titles (U19 Boys, U16 Boys and U16 Girls), making us the most dominant school in table tennis in the country. Schools Challenge Quiz The nation and parts of the world celebrated with us on March 31, 2016 when we finally claimed our first hold on the TVJ‟s Schools Challenge Quiz Title. As you saw, our team represented us in true Titchfield spirit displaying sheer grit, determination and pride as they broke down the proverbial „second place‟ tag that we have endured for generations. The celebrations were wild throughout Jamaica and especially in Port Antonio and we were featured in the print and audio visual media throughout the island. Our team members; Rajae Chambers, Tajae Edwards, Demario Asquitt and Zedan Martin and coaches; Alpha Sparkes and Chase Roberts deserved all the accolades and commendations that came their way. They received numerous prizes from the competition and also received several offers for treats from members of the community. 230th Anniversary Our 230th anniversary celebrations are on in earnest and have gotten relatively good support so far. We had the Mr. and Ms. Titchfield Competition in February as planned. This activity saw several of our students competing for the respective titles supported by their schoolmates and family and sponsored by members of the business community in the Port Antonio area. The event was largely successful and received good crowd turnout. The 5k Run/Walk and Sports Rally was no less successful. We had approximately 100 participants in the actual run/walk, while many more supported through the purchase of tickets and attendance at the sports rally aspect of the day‟s activity. All events during the day happened as planned and we receive support and sponsorship from several entities, local and national. The event was also broadcasted live on Hitz 92 FM which gave exposure to the day‟s activities, the general celebrations, as well as our partners. We are yet to determine which charity will benefit from the part proceeds as well as how much will be given. The Teachers‟ Day Activity was well received by our teachers and saw the vast majority in attendance. We got full support from the PTA which allowed us to treat our teachers with style. The activity was in the form of a dinner and pool party in a casually elegant setting at Seabell Resort right here in Portland. On Vacation and can‟t wait to visit the school and share the memories with family and friends??? We welcome you “home” but we ask that you be mindful of the Visitors‟ Dress Code that is posted at the entrance to the school, and is strictly enforced. See you on campus soon!!!!! Tel: 954-240-3296 Email: taa@titchfieldhigh.com www.titchfieldhigh.com The Alumni Association of Titchfield High School South Florida Chapter Announcements Remembering Lorin Michael Pottinger (Mickey ) A favorite son of the Titchfield, Port Antonio, Portland Community of the 1950s & 60s Mickey is remembered by his schoolmates as a very popular student and performer who was trusted by and had the respect of his teachers, his peers and their parents. He was academically bright, athletic, loved to sing (he and 4 others founded a group, The Weavers) and was also an ardent amateur photographer. As a student at Titchfield, Mickey excelled both in the classroom and in sports. He was a strong swimmer, was on both the school‟s cricket and football teams and is well remembered as the Goal Keeper for the Da‟costa Cup teams for 1959 and 60. After graduation he returned to Titchfield for a short period, where he taught Latin and was the Sports Master. Later, responding to the call to travel the high seas and see the world, he took a job on one of those ocean liners that frequently came steaming up the Titchfield Channel and off he went. Years later and back on land, he settled into the South Florida area. For many of us, “Expatriates” in the South Florida area, Mickey became the link, reconnecting friends from the Titchfield, Port Antonio, Portland Community. Long before LinkedIn became fashionable, you could depend on him to link you up with whomever you wanted to reconnect with from our time together as young people in the Port Antonio Community. He was well known for his book of numbers. Whenever he learned that a friend from the past was in town the rest of us would get a phone call asking when can we get together? So and so was in town and he was ready to cook and organize a party. Another thing he would do each time he renewed acquaintances with someone from his past is, he would take out his phone, dial a number, and after the usual pleasantries, say, “I have someone here I think you‟d like to speak with” and he‟d hand the phone over to you. Sure enough it was always someone you had not spoken to in ages and who you were happy to hear from. Bringing old friends together was something he enjoyed immensely and as one friend said; his contribution to the community of friendships is legendary. Sadly, Mickey passed away on May 23, 2016 at his home in Miami Florida. That link is now broken, and so, as we say farewell to our friend and acknowledge with great regret that this son of Port Antonio, Portland is no longer with us, we give thanks for having shared some really good times with him and his gifts of friendships. We wish for him the welcoming arms of loved ones who predeceased him and may his soul know eternal peace, and contentment in his new community. Barbara Chapman-Edwards Congrats Graduate!!!

The Portland institution has a current population of 1,599 students. The school which began in 1786 in Port Antonio under the Titchfield Trust offered Reading, Writing, Arithmetic, Latin and Greek to boys. In 1883, the old military barracks of Fort George was leased from the Government by the Jamaica School Commission for the relocation of the school. Headmasters of the institution began with Major William Henry Plant (1885-1927), who in 1886 established a day school for both boys and girls. The school consisted of infant, elementary and secondary departments. The infant and elementary were later separated from the Titchfield Trust and became the Titchfield School. Other headmasters include Sam Brown (1927-1951), C.A.P. Thomas, Mortimer Geddes (1962-1974), after whom the Mortimer Geddes Trophy was named for Boys‟ Championship, Lloyd O. Chin (1976-1993), Lincoln Thaxter (1993-2003), Ivy McKenzie (2003-2008) and Richard Thompson who is current principal of the school. Principal Thompson, who was speaking at the Church Service, said Titchfield is celebrating 230 years of excellence on proud traditions. “A tradition of astute stewardship of education in the parish; a tradition of excellent academic and co-curricular performance; a tradition of community involvement and inclusion; a tradition of humility while recognizing and nurturing our talents; a tradition of moral and spiritual grounding and compass,” the Principal said. Custos of Portland Major Lincoln Thaxter, who is also a past student, commended the school‟s staff and management. “In its 230 years the school has grown tremendously in its capacity to deliver an education that is sound, relevant, and one that is propitiatory for the more robust demands that are expected of today‟s high school graduates,” he said. “The principal, teaching staff, administrative and auxiliary staff, and Alumni have proven that they have the ingredients to continue to make Titchfield a good name and a great high school for many more years to come.” Chairman of the school board Lawrence Neufville said Titchfield has made an indelible mark in educating the population of Portland and the wider eastern Jamaica for the past 230 years. “The institution has been brilliant in molding the lives of thousands who were fortunate to have passed through its gates. As the world changes, the global education paradigm must similarly adjust to maintain its relevance. The Ministry of Education, the Board of Governors, and the executive management and staff of Titchfield High are cognizant of this requirement to constantly adjust its education outcomes to satisfy these current and emerging dynamics.” Titchfield High School, said to be the fifth oldest in Jamaica, celebrated its 230th anniversary with a Church Service at Christ Church in Port Antonio. The theme for the church service was “Building 230 years of excellence on proud traditions‟, and the sermon was preached by past student Reverend Margaret Downer-Messias. Titchfield High claims 2016 SCQ title After a nerve-racking and intense match, Titchfield defeated Campion College 41-39 to claim the title for the first time in 47 years. As the school celebrates its 230th anniversary, the win will no doubt add to the string of accolades the institution has garnered over the years.

As Jamaican Nationals, we stand proud. But more importantly, as students from a school with a long legacy of unstoppable excellence, we are always honored by the achievement of those who passed through the gates of our great Alma Mater- Titchfield High School. Mrs. Lana J. Patterson, one of our own past students and teachers. Lana‟s outstanding accomplishment in the field of education stands as a testament of the legacy our school has established over the years. Our distinguished honoree was born to the late Charles and Joyce Adams in the small district of Toms Hope, Portland. The first of six children, Lana grew up in a home where education was of paramount importance, as her mother was a notable teacher. From an early age Lana displayed great leadership skills which were first acknowledged by her kindergarten teacher, Ms. Vassell who appointed her class four helper at Port Antonio Infant School. Ironically, it was Ms. Vasell, and not her mother, who influenced Lana‟s professional choice of becoming a teacher. Another influential person who guided her educational path during early childhood was her primary school teacher the late Mrs. Ivy Townsend. Under the dynamic tutelage of Mrs. Townsend, Lana was successful in her first attempt at the Common Entrance Examination, thus gaining acceptance to the prestigious Titchfield High School. Mrs. Townsend‟s dedication to her students and love of teaching left an indelible impression on Lana, hence her determination on becoming a protégé of Mrs. Townsend. Along the way there were others who continued to leave an impression on Lana. Mrs. Hyacinth Rhodd‟s organized approach and delivery of Home Economics lessons and Mrs. Millwood‟s exceptional skills as a math teacher blazed a trail for Lana to emulate and she certainly did! As a student at Titchfield, Lana was an active participant in many aspects of the school community, but stood out most profoundly as a netballer. She was a member of the Plant House team and helped them capture the netball trophy on many occasions. She was also an aggressive player for her form team and served on the school team, even though her religious conviction prevented her from playing on Saturdays when the team travelled to other locations. In addition, Lana was also a very active participant in Eisteddfod, where she performed piano recitals and displayed other aesthetic qualities. She also worked assiduously on the PTA as Entertainment Coordinator for the many Easter fairs the PTA sponsored. Lana‟s 38 years of teaching began immediately after graduating fifth form. Her first position was as a pre-train teacher. For four years she trudged through the Rio Grande Valley to gain valued practice at Moore Town All-Age School. This experience further underscored her desire to become a teacher, thus propelling her to formal training at St. Joseph‟s Teachers‟ College. Since migrating to South Florida Lana upgraded her qualifications at Florida Atlantic University. Upon graduation from St. Joseph‟s, Lana began her professional career at Titchfield High School, where she taught Mathematics from first to fifth form. However, since she was the Mathematics Coordinator for the Lower School, she focused mainly on first to third form. As a senior teacher and grade supervisor Lana was influential in shaping the lives of many of her students and promoted many innovative approach to the teaching of mathematics at the school. As a teacher, Lana‟s involvement was not limited to the classroom but included her committed involvement in her church. For Lana, mathematics is everywhere, so she spends time immersing her students in this principle. For example, she makes it known to them that the letter X represents vertical angles, and the number of feet you walk or run each day is distance- and that means MATH. To her Math is simply listening and following directions. With these philosophies, Lana convinces her students to change their attitude towards math from negative to positive and the end results are stunning. Lana‟s success as one of the most acclaimed math teachers in both Jamaica and the USA is accentuated by several factors. Firstly, she takes a personal interest in each student and believes the road to success is dedication. Secondly, she fosters a classroom environment that builds confidence and encourages her students to try and try again until they achieve success. Additionally, Lana always takes time to say something positive to each student, even to the ones who demonstrate very little interest in learning Math. Besides building confidence in her students, Lana works hard at preparing her lesson plans and grading mountains of papers weekly. Since her days of teaching at Titchfield High School, Lana has demonstrated a propensity for excellence. While there, she was recognized as the Junior Teacher of the Year for Portland by the Kiwanis Club of Portland. This was especially humbling for her, since Mrs. Townsend, whom she revered, was also honored as the Senior Teacher of the Year at that same event. Numerous other awards and recognitions would follow. These include a Sun Sentinel feature story in 2005 that highlighted the high FCAT scores of the students she taught. These scores showed that Lana was among the top performing math teachers in Broward County. Her trail of subsequent distinctive accomplishments includes: 2007-2008 D.J. McVis Teacher of Excellence 2008-2009 Nominee for Broward County Mathematics Teacher of the Year 2012-2013 Ranked in the top one percent of teachers in the state of Florida. 2013-2014 Nominee for Broward County Mathematics Teacher of the Year 2013-2014 William Dandy Middle School Teacher of the Year 2014-2015 Broward County Mathematics Teacher of the Year 2016 - High Impact teacher for the state of Florida. This recognition is especially important to Lana, since there are 182,000 teachers in the state of Florida, yet less than 10% are considered high impact teachers. This is clear evidence that our Mrs. Lana Patterson is among the elite when it comes to educating students. And on a Lighter Note....
