JACOB’S LADDER FUNDRAISING PROJECT<\/h1>\n

<\/p>\n

For many of us, especially those who were boarders from the 1960s onward, traversing the seemingly endless Jacob\u2019s Ladder daily was an experience we will never forget. For others, it was an alternate albeit taxing route to the chapel. Whatever your memories, Jacob\u2019s Ladder is a part of DC\u2019s mystique and history. As we embark on a new chapter of the school\u2019s development with the building of a 6th form  college on lands formerly occupied by \u201cTop School\u201d (the dormitories), the DC Alumni Association is launching the JACOB\u2019S LADDER Fundraising project. <\/p>\n

Each alumnus is being asked to contribute a minimum of J$15,000 or US$150 for a commemorative tile with his or her name along with years of attendance at DC. The tiles will be placed on the walls of Jacob\u2019s Ladder as a demonstration of your support in building a new phase of the school\u2019s history.   <\/p>\n

All proceeds from the sale of tiles will go towards the building of the 6th form college.<\/p>\n

OUR TARGET: J$10,000,000<\/strong><\/span>
\nBY DECEMBER 2018<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

A quarry tile is a very hard, impervious paving tile made from the ground minerals formed and fired in much the same way as is used to make brick. They are typically harder than ordinary clay bricks, due to the minerals used and the high firing temperatures. Unlike clay terracotta, quarry tiles are not porous and will resist water.<\/p>\n

Width of tile: 8 inches (20 cm)
\nHeight of tile: 4 inches (13 cm)
\nThickness: 0.375 inch (0.95 cm)<\/p>\n
