Our Vision: Educate a Girl. Transform a Community.

 

An Important Mission

The physical buildings of Simbolei Academy are the location for an our mission to provide young women with a rigorous education and new opportunities for high levels of academic achievement.

Our vision is to foster community, social responsibility and creativity.

Our curriculum design includes involving our students in the community through tutoring and story-time literacy promotion at the local elementary schools. Students at Simbolei Girls' also complete cultural studies programs in which students and their teachers use the cultural and natural resources of the community as the basis for projects in writing, social studies, math and science.

Simbolei Academy welcomes the community into our school!

  • Access to our open library

  • Performances of our music and theater programs

  • Public seminars on health, child development, home economics and agricultural innovation

By providing young women with an education that values and develops critical and creative thinking, along with incorporating community values and engaging the entire community involvement, we seek to provide a model for other schools in Kenya.
