Monrovia - In an effort to promote accountability and improve service delivery in public schools, the Kids Education Engagement Project (KEEP), has launched a one-year accountability and service delivery project in 12 public schools across three counties in Liberia. The schools include Sappimah, Panker Town, Gbarmynma and Weafur-Gbarma Public Schools in Gbapolu Counties; Zleh Town, Gboloken, Tuzon and Toe Town Public Schools in Grand Gedeh Counties and Todee, Bahr Town, Morris Farm and James Moore Public Schools of Montserrado County. “After a year of operation, we will make recommendations to both the educational authorities and other stakeholders within the education sector. " KEEP’s initiative came amid increasing report of patronage and bribery by administrators, professors, and students in the education sector. "Although my children are not in public schools, I am taking part in this exercise to ensure that public schools are improved so that my children would one day attend public schools to allow me complete high schools,” a hopeful Blessing Ajaie stated.
