Mr Teddy Ofori, Assistant Headmaster of the Hohoe EP Senior High School, (HEPSS) has called for prompt and massive assistance to fix the school's facilities destroyed in a rainstorm recently.
He said the situation was having adverse effects on teaching, learning and discipline in the school.
Mr Ofori told the Ghana News Agency that his bungalow, the Girls' Dormitory and the school's garage built since the establishment of the
school in 1961, suffered the worst damage.
He said more than 150 girls displaced as a result are being temporarily accommodated in the newly built computer laboratory and Visual Arts
Department.
The dining hall has also been partitioned to serve as classrooms for teaching Home Economics, Business Accounting and Business Secretariat
classes in turns amidst noise and smoke from the kitchen.
Mr Ofori said the situation has resulted in 450 students out of the total 880 becoming day students.
Mr Ofori said with the exception of the headmaster, the Senior Housemaster, House Mistress and the chaplain, all the other teachers were
staying outside campus.
He commended the Hohoe Municipal Assembly for donating 10 bundles of roofing sheets and the School's Parent Teacher Association for their
assistance in keeping the school running.
Mr Ofori, therefore, called on the Ghana Education Trust Fund, the National Disaster Management Organization (NADMO) corporate institutions and NGOs to go to the aid of the school.
