Class of 2020 graduation ceremony with no audience due to pandemic

Form Four students (seniors) finished their classes in March and are now taking their national graduation exams, the Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE). The KCSE exams are challenging and take three weeks to complete. They cover all four years of high school and require the students to write essays, do hands-on science demonstrations/experiments, and write out math problems completely.

Thanks to the excellent facilities on the JAMS campus—the Albert K. and Patricia G. Sparks Science Building and the Resource Center—JAMS is a Kenya Ministry of Education approved exam center and our students can take their KCSE exams on their own campus. This is especially advantageous for our students during the pandemic.

The KCSE is crucial for future opportunities, such as vocational college or university. You can send encouraging messages to the Form Fours by emailing Friends@JAMSKenya.org and we will forward your messages to the school. Thank you!
