One thing that is important and special about CIS is that despite our notable growth as an organization, our warm family culture, positive relationships, and thoughtful care for the needs of children stand firm as the ethos of our school. Images of the impressive school campus can capture your attention, and graphs and statistics can quantify learning Dr. Jeremy Moore and demographics, but these don’t begin to describe the joy and synergy that flows through the halls. As we celebrate the conclusion of another year, this report highlights progress of the school and achievements of our students during the 2018-19 school year.

  • 2. Geology and Geomorphology of Little Cayman
    2. GEOLOGY AND GEOMORPHOLOGY OF LITTLE CAYMAN D.R. Stoddart Introduction Little Cayman forms one of the emergent islands along the northern rim of the Cayman Trench, between the Sierra Maestra of Cuba and the Gulf of Honduras. The Trench itself is 1700 km long and more than 100 km wide (Uchupi 1975). It includes the Oriente, Bartlett and Misteriosa Deeps, all reaching more than 6000 m depth. The nearest land areas to the Cayman Islands (other than Cuba), such as Jamaica and the Swan Islands, lie on the southern side of the Trench. Early workers such as Taber (1922) considered the Trench to be the site of massive lateral movement. Such views have had to be modified in the light of plate tectonic theory, though some workers still envisage lateral movement along it of up to 1000 km. It is known that granodiorites outcrop in the walls of the Trench at depths of 600- 3400 m, and geophysical data suggest a possible tensional origin. Spreading rates have been inferred of 0.4 cm/year since the Eocene, accounting for 200 km of left-lateral displacement between the Cayman Ridge and the Nicaraguan Plateau (Perfit and Heezen 1978); other workers suggest greater rates of spreading (Macdonald and Holcombe 1978). The Cayman Islands themselves probably have a granodiorite foundation, capped by basalt, and overlain by mid-Tertiary and later carbonates. Perfit and Heezen (1978) suggest a general subsidence rate of 6 cm/1000 years during the carbonate accumulation, but the exposure of marine limestones in each of the Cayman Islands indicates local uplift.
