Edwin Allen High School

Edwin Allen High School, located in rural North West Clarendon, primarily serves students from upper Clarendon, with others from Manchester, St. Ann, and Trelawny. The nearby community of Frankfield Proper has basic services such as a Post Office, Police Station, and Fire Station, but most students live in agrarian areas with little commercial activity. This environment has shaped a school culture rooted in modest means, where many parents are often unemployed, farmers, or minimum-wage earners struggle to provide consistent support. A small number of students live with relatives due to parents residing overseas, and family structures vary widely.
