History
The school was established on 3 March 1995 by a Catholic church with Archbishop Emeritus Gregory Kpiebaya who was the Bishop of Wa in the 1980s.[4] The initial idea was from the chief of Jenebob at that time to cater for the educational need of the youth in that locality. With financial support from a parish in Germany called St. Ignatius and the parish chairman, Bernhard Nistchke, the construction work was started in 1992.The school finally started on 3 March 1995 with one hundred and twenty students (120) comprising 80 boys and 40 girls. This was the first time the Upper West Region had a mixed catholic school. The school was formally captured into the public system in 1997. The continuous support of the Parent-Teacher Association (P.T.A) in providing the students with three meals a day helped the school to enroll students in the boarding house from 1997. Currently[when?], the school has a population of about thousand students and a staff of 70.
