Albena Lake-Hodge Comprehensive School (ALHCS) is the sole government secondary school of Anguilla, in The Valley. As of 2017[update] it had about 1,062 students. It has two campuses, A and B. Forms 1-2 go to campus B while forms 3-6 go to Campus A.[1] It is named after Albena Lake-Hodge.
It opened as The Valley Secondary School on 21 September 1953. Its first principal, J. T. Thom, was from Guyana. It received its current name in 1986. It previously served only Anguilla's elite, but became a universal secondary school.[2]
In 2015 principal Ingrid Lake retired, so Joyce Webster became the principal.[3]
By 2016 the Anguillian government was developing a master plan for the school's redevelopment.[4]
There are 48 Caribbean Advanced Proficiency Examination (CAPE) units offered, as well as 32 Caribbean Secondary Examination Certificate (CSEC) courses.[5]
School Song
Our eyes have seen the vision
Our hands in differing ways
Shall build a peace together
A school for future days.
CHORUS
Sing out, sing out
Long may she stand
A place of honour
In the land
Our mind shall give her beauty
Our spirit self control
Together we shall build her
A strong and living soul
Our hearts shall give her courage
Our lips shall speak her fair
We’ll laugh at her and love her
Defend her everywhere.
