American Baptist School cries for help

Head teacher of the Calvary Baptist Primary School Kowama in Bo, Mr. Alusine Sillah, has appealed to the government through NaCSA and charitable organizations to rehabilitate his dilapidated school building that is seemingly posing a threatening situation for the pupils attending therein.

The crevices on the wall are porous, apart from the corrugated old roof of the building thereby rendering the building inaccessible when it rains.

It could be recalled that since the school was established in 1994 it has awarded the school a lot of credit and Mr. Sillah noted that the community is now boasting that his school usually put up one of the best academic performances in the township. Ironically the school lacks a good building structure to accommodate the pupils.

The deputy head teacher of the school, Martha Yeama Sandi, said that the school has demonstrated a remarkable strength of performance in academic, social, and cultural platforms. She accentuates the atmosphere of desolation if there is no help rendered to the school come the 2008/09 academic year.

She asserted that the school authorities have fought their way upwards with a sheered strength of character that culminated to the success of establishing and running the school at this moment, therefore she directed her pleas with charitable organizations to help rehabilitate the school building so that their efforts will not go vain.
