The Orkeeswa Model
HIGH QUALITY ACADEMICS
Orkeeswa promotes hands-on, experiential learning that emphasizes creative and critical thinking. A low student-to-teacher ratio and a philosophy of open communication create an environment in which students are able to recognize their strengths, find their passions, and seek guidance.
ATHLETICS
Our athletics program offers students the opportunity to learn about teamwork, leadership, competition and dedication while building their confidence and communication skills outside the classroom. After-school sports also offer students a fun outlet from their studies, as well as their strenuous household responsibilities, such as collecting firewood, fetching water, and herding livestock.
EXTRA-CURRICULAR ACTIVITIES
Each day, our students are encouraged to explore their interests, find their passions and develop practical skills through clubs, games, agriculture projects, art workshops and leadership training.
PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT
Our diverse and experienced teaching staff motivates our students inside the classroom and beyond. Through ongoing Professional Development, our faculty explore new teaching methodologies to expand our capacity to serve our students in the most effective way possible. Our Professional Development workshops focus on cooperative and experiential learning techniques.
