The Alumni Association of the Titchfield High School (TAATHS), South Florida Chapter, was established in October 2000 with the main objective of giving back to the “School on the Hill” in Port Antonio, Portland, Jamaica.
While the Association created a space for social activities for past students to reconnect, it was felt that it would also be a vehicle for fundraising to support and enhance teaching and learning at Titchfield.
