Glenmuir High School  Glenmuir High School (GHS) is a Jamaican secondary school located in May Pen, Clarendon Parish, Jamaica. It is among the top performing secondary schools in the country. In 2011 it was among the top 3 preferred schools for students who sat the Grade Six Achievement Test (GSAT). In 2012 it placed 3rd in the country in the Caribbean Secondary Education Certificate (CSEC) exams, and in 2013 placed 4th for academic performance in the Secondary Schools Guide. Glenmuir educates over 1,700 pupils, aged between 10 and 20 years. Glenmuir was founded in 1958 by the Rt. Reverend Percival William Gibson, the Bishop of Jamaica, as a private co-educational secondary school of the Anglican Diocese, on a 25-acre site in an upper income residential road in May Pen. The school motto is "Flagrans Veritatis Studio" ("Burning with the Zeal for Truth"). Glenmuir opened its doors on September 15, 1958 with 55 students but it was not until September 30 that Sir Kenneth Blackburne, Governor of Jamaica, performed the official opening ceremony. The main administrative building (which included the library, classrooms, the Headmaster's office, and a flat on the first floor for his family) was originally the home of the Custos of Clarendon, George W. Muirhead, C.M.G. Construction of the first modern block of classrooms began in 1959 and by the beginning of the Easter Term 1962 there were 236 pupils in attendance. Glenmuir was modelled on the British public school and in the early years half the teachers were English expatriates. The original curriculum included classical studies, incorporating Latin and Ancient History. The House System was established in 1959 along with the Prefect Body and soon after that the publication of the first school magazine. A year later saw the formation of the Combined Cadet Force (CCF) affiliated to the 1st Battalion of the Jamaica Combined Cadet Force (JCCF). From the very beginning popular school activities included debating, music, drama, cricket, football, table tennis, athletics, netball, and tennis. The school was recognized as a Government grant-aided secondary institution by the Ministry of Education after just one year. Glenmuir's first Headmaster was Dr Sydney Howard Scott, a graduate of the University of Oxford, and secretary of the Oxford University West Indian Society (1951-1952). Scott retired in 1983.
