Student Quote: “Education is the key to success and in order to be successful in life and be someone great you need a good education. My goal is to be a primary school teacher and the first step towards achieving that goal is by attending high school. I also want to be someone educated because when I get older, I want to be able to look after my mother. My mom is a single mother.. She does not have a stable job and she has been putting me and my brother through primary school by selling food, snacks and equites (corn in a cup) in order for her to have an income to sustain me and my brother. My mother is a hard-working woman and she deserves to be taken care of when she gets older and for that reason, I need to be able to have a sound education for me to achieve my goals.”
