Impact Report
Adama secondary school project is the first project of Books To Africa in Ethiopia which provided 1,172 books to one of the largest secondary schools – Adama Secondary School – in Adama town, 100 kilometers from the capital city – Addis Ababa.
The books were put in the library so the whole school community could use them. The school has around 4,000 grade 9 and 10 students and every year, the grade 10 students take national examinations. Therefore, the books meant a lot to the students. Although the curriculum is a bit different, the students are using the books in preparation for the national examinations and their teachers are also using the books as additional materials to their existing textbooks. The impact of this project is not only limited to educational purposes because it is also encouraging our students to help others.
