Welcome
A neighbourhood school with a full curriculum
We are a general education academy serving families in Blakays Town Community and the wider Ganta City area. Our pupils sit the same core subjects taught in schools everywhere — and they sit them in classrooms small enough that no child disappears in the back row.
Elementary through junior high
One continuous path from the ABC class to Grade 9, so a child can begin and finish with us.
Two sessions each day
The morning session runs ABC to Grade 6; the afternoon session runs Grades 7 to 9. Each session gets a full, unhurried timetable.
Devotion before lessons
Every session opens with devotion — a quiet, steadying start before the first lesson of the day.

What we teach
The core curriculum, taught properly
Every pupil studies the same four core subjects from the ABC class through Grade 9, with reading and literature running alongside them the whole way.
Mathematics
Number work, arithmetic and, from Grade 6, geometry with a full instrument set.
Science
Observation and simple experiment: living things, matter, energy, health and the world around Nimba.
History
Liberia, West Africa and the wider world — where we come from and how we got here.
Reading & Literature
Set texts are purchased through the school so every pupil works from the same edition.
Moral & Civic Formation
Daily devotion, good conduct and the habits of a decent citizen.
Physical Education
Football, athletics and organised play — a real break in a long school day.

Office hours are separate from class times
The school office is open 8:00 AM – 4:30 PM, Monday – Friday, for enquiries, enrollment and fee payment. Class times follow the two session timetables above.
A child who is known by name is a child who comes back tomorrow. We keep our classes small enough that every pupil is spoken to, and every absence is noticed.
Admissions
Three steps to a place
Step one
Call or visit the office
Ring 701-809-8225 or come to the campus in Blakays Town Community between 8:00 AM – 4:30 PM, Monday – Friday.
Step two
Placement and paperwork
Bring your child’s previous report card or transfer certificate if they have one. We place each pupil in the grade that genuinely fits.
Step three
Uniform, books and supplies
Uniforms are sold on campus. Reading and literature books are purchased through the school. The supply list is published in full.
Bring these to enrollment
A previous report card or transfer certificate where one exists, and the name and phone number of the parent or guardian who will be the school’s point of contact.
If your child has never been to school before, that is entirely fine — bring them anyway and we will place them in the ABC class.
Fees
Tuition, study class and WAEC examination fees are set each year and announced by the school office. Please call or visit for the current schedule of fees.
Enrollment is open for the new school year
