| 2014 Graduates |
Last weekend, the school year at the AlphaMax Academy came to a close in a sphere of festive activities. On Saturday, nine students received their diplomas.
Valedictorian for the Class of 2014 was Reann Kersenhout. Reann received the highest school awards for her super performance in the Global Assessment Certificate program, which she completed with 17 distinctions out of 18 subjects. Her super performance gave the 16 year student of Suriname a perfect average score of 4.00. This very rare achievement – perhaps the only one this year worldwide – was applauded with a special Certificate of Achievement and a Scholarship Award from examiners in Australia.
Among the highlights of this year’s Graduation and Awards ceremonies was the opening in the Academy’s courtyard of the Cosmic Heart fountain. It is a unique gift from Caribbean sculptor, James Barrow, who lives in Barbados.
The AlphaMax Academy was established in Suriname in September 1998; the school attracts students from Suriname who are keen to receive their education in English, the world language. The Academy offers classes to students from Kindergarten through the VWO level, the first-year of University study.
