Jean Augustine's tale exemplifies the power of dedication and hard effort in the quest for social justice. She was born on the Caribbean island of Grenada in 1937. She lost her father when she was little and grew up to be an exceptional young student nurtured by a wise grandma.

She came to Canada on the Canada-Caribbean Domestic Program in 1960, already a trained teacher. She studied at Toronto Teachers' College before graduating from the University of Toronto with a Bachelor of Arts degree. While working as an elementary school teacher for the Metropolitan Separate School Board in Toronto, she got her master's degree in education.
