​HUGE MILESTONE! We celebrate with the leaders of St. Jean Baptiste School that the final secondary grade level will be added in September!  What was only a BIG DREAM of the Savanette families is now reality!!

SJBS is the only school in the surrounding rural area to offer Preschool through Secondary classes – 16 grades!  We can’t emphasize enough how rare it is to have a quality primary school in the countryside and almost non-existent to have a secondary school in a rural area!  Less than 20% of primary schools are national schools and they have some of the lowest performance results.

​A message from a student in Kenya

My name is Delilah Musungu. I am 16 years old and I come from a very poor background. My parents are both alive but due to poverty they are unable to support me. This situation forced me and my young brother to go out to the streets so that we could beg for food and ask for help from people in order to support ourselves and my parents.
