Hands Across the Sea provides high quality education to children from preschool to grade 13 at our safe, well-constructed school campus, Institution Mixte Karen Huxter (IMKH). Registered with the Haitian Ministry of Education, our school follows the prescribed federal school curriculum, while working to incorporate modern approaches to teaching and learning. Ongoing teacher training and professional development help our teachers provide the highest quality education possible.
According to the World Food Program, school meals must be a priority in Haiti. Our students receive a nutritious hot lunch each school day and for some children, this is the only hot meal they will have all day. Children who receive nourishment are better able to focus in school and have more academic success.
