St. Mark Lutheran High School faces a major setback academically

St. Mark’s Lutheran High School in Gbarnga, Bong County, has recently faced a major academic setback, with local reports confirming that all 97 students failed the West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE). This unexpected trend aligns with a broader regional slump in test outcomes where critical core subjects, including Mathematics and English Language, saw record-high failure rates. Despite these performance challenges, the institution continues to serve as a recognizable academic hub in the local community.
