    River Gee County – Tuesday, June 17, 2025 – Approximately 300 senior students from six high schools in River Gee County have successfully completed their West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE) as of June 10, 2025.

    Data from the River Gee County school system revealed that 284 students, comprising 112 females and 172 males, represented from Gbeappo Multilateral High and Kevin Sorem Christian Foundation High School of electoral district 1 in Kanweaken. While the Tweh Jaiklay High School, United Methodist High School, Rev. Henry T. Keah Assembly of God High School, and Webbo High School represented from districts 2 and 3 respectively.

    Senior students from Rev. Henry T. Keah Assembly of God High School and another also jointly partook in the annual cum national as well as regional exams.

    The Exam organized by the West African Examinations Council (WAEC), serves as an important milestone for students in West Africa, facilitating their admission to higher education institutions.

    Having commenced on May 15, 2025, the exam concluded on June 10, 2025 showcasing the academic abilities of students from various schools across the county.

    Students in River Gee have dedicated themselves to intensive preparations, with many expressing a mixture of excitement and anxiety as they concluded their final exams.

    School officials noted a decrease in candidates this year compared to previous years, which suggests a decline in enrollment, yet they emphasized a strong commitment to education in the region.

    Teachers and administrators expressed pride in their students, highlighting the thorough preparation programs that have been implemented in recent months.

    “We have worked closely with our students, holding review sessions and mock exams to ensure their readiness for the WASSCE,” said Amos Chea, Principal of Gbeapo Multilateral High School. “We are confident that their efforts will yield positive results essential for their educational progress.”

    The subjects assessed included Mathematics, English Language, and Science, reflecting the diverse interests of students, many of whom aspire to pursue degrees in fields such as medicine, engineering, education, and the arts.

    Parents and guardians actively supported their children, engaging in motivational talks, forming study groups, and providing financial assistance for transportation.

    “Education is a collective responsibility,” asserted Mary Tweh, a mother from Tutuville Community in Fish Town. “I am devoted to helping my child succeed in this gone exam, and I believe she will.”

    As the WASSCE wrapped up finally, preparations for graduation ceremonies are underway to honor the students’ hard work throughout their secondary education.

    “The end of the WASSCE signifies not just the conclusion of our schooling but also the start of our journey toward higher education,” shared Ophelia Konnienie Martalay, a student from Tweh Jaiklay High School in Fish Town. “We aim to secure scholarships and university placements, both locally and internationally.”

    She further expressed, “Many of us complete high school not to become housewives but to acquire knowledge and return to serve our cherished River Gee County.”

    Another student, George Wesseh from Gbeapo Multilateral High School, expressed optimism about his WASSCE results and hopes for scholarships that would enable him to continue his education. He also expressed gratitude to his parents and guardians for their unwavering support.

    The Government of Liberia has announced that they have covered the examination fees for 53,201 candidates, lessening the financial burden on students and their families, thereby reinforcing its dedication to improving access to education.

    According to WAEC Liberia, a total of 1,048 senior high schools participated in the exams, including 1,045 from Liberia and three from Guinea. Among these, 856 were private schools, accounting for 36,428 candidates, while 192 were public institutions. A total of 379 centers were used nationwide which facilitated the exam process.

    As nearly 300 students concluded their exams, the community, especially parents and guardians, stands united in their anticipation of their students’ achievements and future endeavors.
