Overview of School
Awudome Senior High School was established as a community day/boarding school in September, 1963 by Tsito Native Teachers’ Association (TNTA). Mr. William Haper Wheeler, an American educationist who was attached to the Awudome Residential Adult College as a social worker, was invited to head the proposed school. The pioneer teachers were Messrs. W. H. Wheeler (headmaster), Fred Buatsi, David Akortia, and David Dzansi. The school started with about fifty (50) students of which 70% were natives of Tsito. The school was absorbed into the public system on 20th September, 1965. The subjects taught were General Science, History, Geography, Ewe, Bible Knowledge, Music, Mathematics, Art, Typewriting, English Language, French and Literature in English. ...
Currently, the school offers six (6) programmes, namely, General Arts, General Science, Home Economics, Visual Arts, Business and Agricultural Science. As at 2022/23 academic year, students’ population stands at two thousand four hundred and seventy-seven (2477). This is made up of one thousand one hundred and ninety nine (1199) boys and one thousand two hundred and seventy-eight (1278) girls. The strength of the teaching staff is 143 and that of the non-teaching stands at 55
The school is located at Tsito Awudome on the Ho-Accra highway not far away from the Volta regional capital, Ho. It is sited on a piece of land about 60.5 acres. The school has a proactive Board of Governors, a supportive Parent Teacher Association (PTA) and a vibrant Old Students’ Association (OSUA).
The school has a modern administration block, four well equipped ICT laboratories, and spacious arena for co-curricular activities. It has Audio Visual Learning Centre and Electronic Learning Management Support system to enhance teaching and learning. With the innovative interventions put in place, it has yielded positive results with about 90% of 2022 WASSCE graduates qualified for further studies.
Significantly, Awudome Senior High School has excelled in many fields. Some of which are the consistent appearance at National Science and Mathematics Quiz competition at the national level, the district champions for 2023 inter schools’ debate competition and overall champions for 2023 inter school sports and games competition.
In spite of the several successes chalked, the school is in dire need of the following: A three thousand (3000) seating capacity assembly hall, a fully furnished 18-unit classroom block, six hundred bed capacity dormitory each for boys and girls, a three storey 12-unit staff flat, one thousand two hundred (1200) classroom tables and chairs, one thousand bunk beds, thirty-five seater WC facility each for boys and girls, completion of fence wall project, 66-seater bus, and a pickup.
