Narine Dasrat Ji (1954-2023)

It is with great regret that we announce the passing of Shri Narine Dasrat Ji after a prolonged struggle with cancer on July 3, 2023. He was our English Language and Literature teacher, who through his rapport with students and his extraordinary method of teaching was able to lift our school to new heights in the performance of both English Language and Literature at the CSEC examinations.

Throughout his illness he rarely missed a class and even when he was in New York receiving medical attention he conducted full online classes with his students. When there seemed to be no improvement in his situation, he decided to return home in December 2022 and resumed in person teaching until the completion of our mock examinations in February of 2023. Around this time, he became confined at home but continued his interaction with his students until after the CSEC examinations in May. By mid-June things took a turn for the worse but his spirit remained high and positive. Two days before his passing he was visited by Swami Ji and they had a long conversation. According to Swami Ji, Dasrat Ji not only showed us how to live and work, but also how to die in peace and with dignity.
