We are proud to share that a group of our talented Lower 6th<\/sup>\u00a0Form students have been selected to\u00a0participate\u00a0in the prestigious\u00a0Yale Young African Scholars (YYAS)\u00a0programme:\u00a0<\/strong>Zarin Subah, Naa\u00a0Adobi\u00a0Tetteh, Mafata Konneh, and\u00a0Kekeli Fiawoo.<\/p>\n

This highly competitive academic\u00a0programme, run by Yale University specifically for high achieving African students, brings together secondary school students from across the continent who\u00a0demonstrate\u00a0remarkable leadership potential, academic excellence, and a commitment to giving back to their communities.<\/p>\n

Being chosen is a significant\u00a0honour, as our four students underwent a rigorous selection process against thousands of peers across Africa. During the\u00a0programme, Zarin, Naa\u00a0Adobi, Mafata, and Kekeli will engage in demanding university-level lectures, seminars, and workshops designed to sharpen their critical thinking and prepare them for higher education opportunities globally.<\/p>\n

We want to extend our heartfelt congratulations to these outstanding individuals for earning this incredible recognition. Your dedication to your education and your potential as future leaders makes our entire school community immensely proud. We wish you the absolute best and look forward to hearing all about your experiences upon your return!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
