The School

Nianjema Adds Up to Success

Nianjema has grown from 90 students in 2000 to more than 300 students today and 25 teachers in 2010. In an area with students who once had no options beyond elementary school.  

The secondary students—many of whom once had no opportunities beyond elementary school—are now on their way to university. Only 20% of the children of Tanzania currently attend secondary school.

The campus is expanding as well. Nianjema will dedicate a new high school complex this spring, made possible by a USAID grant, Six new classrooms, a larger library complex and a new science lab are in process. Work on dormitories and classroom buildings also continues.
