Pride Academy holds maiden graduation ceremony

Pride Academy was established 8years ago, and has been providing quality and affordable education to many around Spintex Road.

Since its establishment, the school has never held a graduation ceremony in honour of its young learners who get promotion to basic one.

The story was different in December 2022, the school held its first ever graduation ceremony on their school compound to celebrate and honour pupils who got promoted to basic one and Junior High School (JHS) one.

Over the years, students who gets promotions from Basic 6 to JHS 1 would have to further their education elsewhere due to lack of facilities.

But it was announced at the graduation ceremony amidst cheers and applauds that the school now has facilities for JHS students, their students will no longer go out to further their education.

One of their main challenges has to do with slow payment of school fees. Some parents will pill up fees and later take their wards to another school. She pleaded with parents to help the school grow by paying fees on time.

The chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the school, Mr. Samuel Appiah, in his speech gave a glimpse of how the school will look like in the near future. According to him, the ongoing storey building will have 12 classrooms if completed. Another storey building foundation which has already been dug will have 6 classrooms.
