Dallas Primary and Junior High School is one of 58 Jamaican schools currently benefiting from the Enrichment Initiative which is a joint project of the Digicel Foundation and the Ministry of Education. This initiative was launched in 2009 with the goal of achieving 100% literacy by 2015. It involves the provision by the Digicel Foundation of mobile enrichment carts equipped with netbooks loaded with literacy and numeracy programmes, training of teachers in the use of the material, and provision of Internet access through Digicel's 4G Broadband service.
