According to President of the ICHS Alumnae Association,  Keisha Ann Down, since its inception in 2013, the Hall of Fame has raised over J$5Million Dollars and has awarded seven scholarships to bright, promising students, who otherwise would not have been able to complete their tertiary studies in Jamaica.  She further stated:  “It is a reality that there are dozens more students who just cannot afford to go further because of funding.”  She further stated:  “The Hall of Fame also pays tribute to and honours the learning that takes place at ICHS, the women who go on to lead remarkable lives and the inevitable mentoring and leadership that lifts the next generation of leaders.”

​

Immaculate Conception High School has been a leading and well-respected educational institution for over 160 years and is known worldwide.  Its committed faculty and staff have educated thousands of young women in Jamaica and from around the world, many of whom have gone on to make an indelible mark in their respective fields.
