The founder and School Manager, Mama Lucy Kamptoni established the school independently in 2003 with very few students and staff. All staff and faculty are from the local community. Parents, teachers and students are adamant in their commitment to ensuring the success of their school.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Our staff<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The school has qualified and experienced staff including the teachers and non-teachers, good and able management team, strong and active School Committee\/Board. The School Committee\/Board meets regularly and has been instrumental in creating a school that is considered a vital contributor to the future of the local community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Above all, our priority is to ensure that all of our students are assured of their individual importance and are left feeling happy, healthy and appreciated in all areas of life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Economic Diversity & Inclusion<\/strong>,<\/p>\n\n\n\n Shepherds Schools charges an affordable fees to most students, and uses that income to run the school and some of it plus that from well-wishers to subsidize the costs for orphans and other students who might not otherwise be able to afford a high-quality education. At Shepherds Schools all children work and play together, learn from one another, build lifelong friendships and have equal access to a great education.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Progress to Date<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Since its founding in 2003, Shepherds School has grown from 10 to about 700 students, aged between 3 and 17, from pre-school through secondary school level. Currently the school has adequate classrooms, computer labs, school libraries, hostel\/children\u2019s home, and play grounds among other needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Due to good progress, the school also offers clubs and other extracurricular activities that celebrate the vibrant culture of the school. It also has reliable source of water, electricity, transport and security.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Seed capital for the school was originally raised by the school founder Mama Lucy by selling chickens in her village. In September 2007, Mama Lucy Kamptoni was named a fellow of US nonprofit Epic Change, an organization that has since invested to fund significant capital expansion to support Mama Lucy\u2019s vision to provide a high-quality education to children.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Future Plans<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The founder and School Manager, Mama Lucy Kamptoni established the school independently in 2003 with very few students and staff.
