Institution Univers Recognized as a ”Top-10 School”
by Haitian Ministry of Education

In the 2008-09 school year, Institution Univers had 1,600 students in grades pre-K through 13. The Haitian Ministry of education follows the French system of having 13 grades. The success of Institution Univers was demonstrated again by achievements of students, who excelled in the June, 2009 national required academic testing at certain grade levels. All 169 sixth and ninth grade pupils except one passed their examinations. The national examinations at the 12th and 13th grade levels are highly rigorous, yet 100% of Univers’ thirty-three 12th grade students and 100% of the fifteen 13th grade students passed these notable tests. This far exceeds the Haitian national statistics, because nationally, only 26% of 12th and 13th grade students achieved a passing mark on these same government-required exams. Based on this performance on national tests, The Haiti Ministry of Education announced on September 16, 2009 that Institution Univers is “one of the top ten schools in the nation.”
