The St Louis Senior High School Old Students Association is constructing a 600-bed dormitory for the school at the cost of GHc 2.7 million.<\/p>\n
The association is also carrying out renovation works and installing a solar panel in the school to provide energy for effective teaching and learning.<\/p>\n
Ms Afumwaah Bruce, Global President of the Association, disclosed this at the launch of the school’s 65th-anniversary celebration in Accra.<\/p>\n
The celebration is on the theme \u201cEquipping the Girl-Child for Leadership: Giving Back to Society.\u201d<\/p>\n
Ms. Bruce said the project which was being financed through voluntary contributions and fundraising activities was expected to be completed in 2020.<\/p>\n
She said so far the association had been able to provide the school with computers, toilet facilities and poly tanks.<\/p>\n
Ms Bruce said the school which was founded in 1952 had become a fulcrum in girl-child education by setting females on a path to greater heights and increase participation in the society and the economy.<\/p>\n
She expressed the hope that the provision of the facility would ease congestion that had resulted from the increase in admission.<\/p>\n
Ms Bruce commended the 1992 year Group of the school for sponsoring this year\u2019s Speech and Prize-Giving Day saying that it was the first time a year group was sponsoring the event.<\/p>\n
Mrs Barbara Lokko, President of the 1992 year Group who are celebrating their silver jubilee, said the Group was providing the school with a commercial lawn mower, sponsor the Speech and Prize-Giving Day as well as the Dinner Dance for the teaching staff.<\/p>\n
She called on all to contribute towards the success of girl-child education in the country.<\/p>\n
