During the event, the Headmaster, Mr. Michael Mensah, shared the rich history of the institution and its success stories, including when it was established, its relocations, and how it ended up in its current location. He also narrated the school’s achievements in academics, sports, and other co-curricular activities.

He added that, the school will provide them with the right environment and psychological support to succeed in school and life in general.
The school Board Chairman, Mr. Ernest Owusu Ansah, also shared valuable words of wisdom on discipline and achieving goals. As an old student and educationist, he was proud and appreciates what the institution has done for him and urged the students to be disciplined and work towards achieving their goals.
