peace hana school

2024 Enrollment

FOUNDED: 1998

Peace Hana School was approved by the government of Liberia in September 1998. The school began with a vision to equip poor children from ages 3 to 6 years old with reading and writing skills, as well as several extracurricular courses. Peace Hana then expanded in 2002 to also include elementary education.

Due to the Ebola outbreak in 2015, the school had to be shut down for 6 months. Even after the official end of the outbreak declared by the World Health Organization, the school continues to implement hygiene and safety measures so that the children can continue to attend.

In 2023, Peace Hana introduced a sports scholarship program to support children from low-income families. This year the school also implemented an off-campus learning initiative featuring agricultural experiences in rural areas.

In 2024 Peace Hana renovated the school roof to allow in more natural light to the classrooms, installed wall-mounted blackboards, and improved the playground. These upgrades create a brighter and more enjoyable learning environment, contributing to increased motivation among the students. The school also launched new classes in French and dance.
