The Krachi West Assembly has taken a significant step to support outstanding students in the area by providing them with Senior High School (SHS) starter packs. This initiative aims to make the transition into secondary education smoother for students and their guardians. The items presented included modern chop boxes, suitcase bags, pillows, and mattresses. By offering these essential boarding items, the Assembly hopes to alleviate the financial burden on parents and encourage students to focus on their academic work.
The support, which targeted fresh entrants to SHS, is part of the Assembly's broader strategy to reduce the financial burden on parents while encouraging students in the district to take their studies seriously. The Municipal Chief Executive, Prosper Addo, stated that the Assembly's record of supporting education in the area remained unmatched. He emphasized that investment in young people was central to the future progress and development of Krachi West.
Speaking at the presentation ceremony, Prosper Addo noted that although this year's BECE results were characterised by several challenges, candidates from Krachi West performed relatively well. He urged the beneficiaries to take advantage of the support, study diligently, and make the district proud. The MCE also cautioned the students against engaging in bad behaviour, drug use, and other activities that could negatively affect their education and future prospects.
The Municipal Education Director, Samuel Yao Dovulo, commended the MCE and the Assembly for their continued support towards improving education in the area. He described the presentation as timely, noting that it would help reduce the financial burden on parents and guardians. The director of education further advised the students to avoid negative peer influence, remain focused, and take their studies seriously.
Some of the beneficiaries, including students who gained admission to St. Monica's Senior High School and other institutions, expressed gratitude to the Assembly for the support. They pledged to make good use of the items, work hard, and excel in their chosen schools. This initiative has been well-received by the students and their families, who appreciate the Assembly's efforts to support their education.
The Krachi West Assembly's initiative is part of a larger effort to promote education in the district. By providing essential items to students, the Assembly aims to ensure that financial constraints do not prevent hardworking students from pursuing secondary education. This support will enable students to focus on their studies and achieve their academic goals.
