Overview

Montego Bay Community College is located at Alice Eldemire Drive in Montego Bay. The college was established in 1975 as a sixth form college based on the campuses of Mount Alvernia High School, Montego Bay High School and Cornwall College. Since the schools individually had very small sixth forms, the college was established to make optimum use of limited resources. Each campus offered a particular set of subjects and students were stationed according to the set of subjects that they were studying. The students continued to wear the uniforms of their former schools even when stationed on other campuses. Sometimes students had to commute between different campuses because their chosen subjects were not offered in combination on a single campus. This situation was of course, untenable. Therefore, in September 1978, the college moved to its present location at Alice Eldemire Drive.
