Ahamansu Islamic Senior High School[1]("AHISHS") is public, co-educational high school located in Ahamansu, about 25 kilometres from the Kadjebi District capital (Kadjebi) in the Volta Region, Ghana. The school is the first Islamic high school in the Volta Region and one of three second cycle institutions in the Kadjebi District.[2]
History
Ahamansu Islamic Senior High School started as private high School in 2006 by the Zongo Community with funds from donor organizations. In support of the idea, the Ahamansu Traditional Council offered large parcels of land to be used as campus for the establishment of the school.
Eric Osei became the first Headmaster of the School from 2006 to 2010. In 2010 Godfried Nyarko[3] replaced Osei as Headmaster. Nyarko advised for the necessary measures to be taken to ease the financial burdens of the school and to curtail the school's over-reliance on the National Service School for teachers.
Nyarko initiated the processes which eventually culminated in the absorption of the school into the public system. In 2011, officers from the Ghana Education Service Headquarters, Accra inspected the schools facilities and recommended the school's absorption. The school became a public one in the year 2012. Charlotte Agbogareplaced Nyarko and has since been the Headmistress of the school to date.
