He said the goal of the donation was to assist in creating a positive learning environment for the students and to support their success.

He cited the school's continuous improvement in WASSCE results as a motivating factor behind their support, adding: “We hope that our donation will enhance the living and learning experience of the students and teachers and staff.”
The Deputy Director, Human Resource Management Development for Asugyaman District Education Directorate, Ruby Ohene-Adutwum, expressed gratitude to MODEC for their generous donation and urged students to take good care of the furniture for their positive impact on the school’s performance.
“We are thrilled to see these items — 300 mono desks, 500 bunk beds, 15 dining hall benches, and 10 dining hall tables — donated to the school. “We know these items would improve the performance of the school. We appeal to students to take good care of them,” she said.
The Headmaster of the school, Rev. Richard Adjei, also expressed appreciation for the laudable donation, noting its potential to significantly enhance the educational experience at the school.

Impact
The Senior Prefect of the school, Shadrach Amoah, highlighted the impact of MODEC's donation, particularly on student accommodation and classroom seating.
He expressed gratitude for the bunk beds provided, which would alleviate previous challenges of students sleeping on the floor, a situation that had led to some students falling ill due to exposure to the cold floor.
