THE Managment of the Kadjebi-Asato Senior High School (SHS) in the Volta Region has organised an awards ceremony in the school during which 67 hardworking students and teachers were honoured for their meritorious services.
Each of the students received parcels containing books, and some had cash in addition to the parcels.
One tutor, Madam Nancy Attu-Asiedu, who was retiring after 32 years service, was presented with a large-size deep freezer, while another, Mr Mbomedony Alanja, who teaches Principles of Cost Accounting, took home a coloured television set.
In a speech, the Headmaster of the school, Mr Musah Yamba Issahaku, said for five continuous years, the school had been scoring 100 per cent passes in the final examinations.
"As the final year students walked out of the examination halls after the recent external examinations, I saw broad smiles and cheerfulness on their faces. This gives me an impression that this year's results would be one of the best in recent times, " he said.
Mr Issahaku praised the students who had just completed their courses, and described them as the most disciplined, and said he was optimistic that their discipline would be translated into remarkable academic performance, when the results were released in September, this year.
Mr Issahaku pointed out that discipline and academic excellence had been their watch word."
He noted that but for the timely in intervention of the parent-teacher association (PTA), which provided GH¢10,000.00 for the running of the school the institution would have closed down due to the government’s delay in releasing feeding grants.
The headmaster appealed to the government and the Ghana Education Trust Fund (GETFund) to provide the school with means of transport since the school had become a “junior university” with a large number of students.
The Chairman of the Board of Governors of the school, Nana Otuo Siribour II, commended the school authorities for their hard work.
He advised the students to make good use of their time while in the school by attending classes regularly, adding “if you don't make profitable use of the opportunity, then you are destroying your future.”
Nana Otuo Siribour announced that the school had acquired 689 acres of land in readiness for any type of tertiary educational institution.
Earlier, the School Prefect, Master Joseph Kanda, had on behalf of the Students Representative Council (SRC) presented two lawn mowers valued at GH¢1,600.00 to the school.
