COVID-19 pandemic impacted our school

Since the closure of school March 2019, we operated remotely using zoom cloud meeting, google suite and what's app to deliver lessons to our students. We achieved a 78% engagement using these platforms. Printed materials and learning kits were delivered to another 15% of students without devices at our school.

Our school Reopened for pilot face to face classes December 2019 as we met MOHW and MOEYI standards to operate during this global crisis. School then continued into January and we are now experiencing a 90% engagement rate using both online and face to face modality on a daily basis. The challenges are many but can be categorize as need for more resources.
