Dr Ofori Sarpong donates ultra-modern facility to PRESEC

An old student of Presbyterian Boys’ Senior High School and current board chairman, Dr Ofori Sarpong, has donated a modern state-of-the-art facility to his alma mater as a way of giving back to the institution that shaped his character, discipline, and academic journey decades ago.

Dr Sarpong, who also serves as the Global President of the school’s alumni association, said the gesture reflects his appreciation for the quality education and values instilled in him during his time at PRESEC.

The newly commissioned facility is expected to support the government’s efforts to improve access to quality secondary education by reducing congestion in boarding houses and creating a more conducive environment for teaching and learning.
