Lunchtime at the Lycee Moderne de l’Amitie 2024

At the Lycée Moderne de l’Amitie (LMA):

·         69.18% of students (vs 44.73% of students regionally and 47.61% nationally) passed the BEPC, qualifying them to go from middle school to secondary school;

·         77.87% of students passed the BAC (vs 58.32% of students regionally and 52.61% of students nationally), graduating from secondary school. 

·         86.6% of the girls living in camps for displaced persons passed year-end exams, enabling them to go on to their next year; and 64.28% passed the BAC, graduating from secondary school.  This is a remarkable achievement among terrorized kids who fled their villages and are living in camps.

Thanks to generous donors, 250 village girls received free lunches.   And thanks to a special donation, we supported school fees for the middle and secondary school education of an additional 111 girls living in camps for internally displaced persons in the Ouahigouya area due to the forced fleeing of their families from the jihadist violence in their villages in northern Burkina.  97.3% of these girls passed year-end exams, enabling them to go on to their next year of schooling.
