The Methodist Education Unit's Volta and Oti Regional Manager, Reverend Mrs Josephine Esinam Gudu-Agbadzivor, reported on the church's commitment to providing comprehensive education for children to foster a brighter future. She highlighted that while adhering to the national education system, the church's mission extended beyond academic success to nurturing Christian character and preparing young people to become responsible adults capable of making a positive impact.
At the 60th anniversary celebration of Ho Methodist Junior High School (JHS), the Regional Manager emphasized the importance of values like honesty, accountability, hard work, and kindness in molding responsible individuals. She called for investment in the future by establishing an Information Technology (IT) laboratory to equip students with digital literacy skills, enabling them to navigate the rapidly changing technological landscape and prepare for the workforce.
The Regional Manager appealed to various stakeholders, including corporate institutions, parents, philanthropists, chiefs, and old students, to contribute towards the completion of the IT lab project. The Methodist Bishop of the Ho Diocese, Right Reverend Matthew Zikpi, urged stronger parental control to complement teachers' efforts in shaping students into responsible adults.
He praised the school's founding fathers for their vision and challenged students to seize educational opportunities to develop discipline and excel academically. Rev. Emmanuel Edzeame, the Headmaster of Ho Methodist JHS, shared that the school began with 72 students and now has 300, performing well in academics and extracurricular activities.
The Chairman of the Parent-Teacher Association, Mr Delali Nkrumah Gatsey, confirmed ongoing support for the school and the PTA's role in initiating the IT lab project, calling on stakeholders to lend their assistance.
