Mr. Kep said grade twelves’ national examinations is about four more weeks away and they will still accommodate their students who will sit for this national tests with the rest of the grade 12’s nationwide.
He stated that they have been working tirelessly to prepare their students for the exams and hence, will still allow students to sit the important tests despite the earthquake destruction that defaced the school infrastructures.
He said the school will prioritize on the grade twelve examinations by using available and good condition classrooms to run the examinations.
