Support Staff

Gladys is the school secretary.  She also fills in when teachers are absent.

William John is one of our night watchmen.  He risked his life when nearby fires threatened the school.  Twice he has been injured in his effort to protect Bright Star and the students.

Peter the cook feeds our 475 students 5 days a week and our orphans 7 days a week.  He also takes care of Simba and Lucy, our dogs.

When she's not attending her college classes, Lillian oversees our Micro-finance Project and provides career counseling for our graduates and our students in Form IV.  Lillian is sponsored by Bill Kring and is supported by Gordon Mendenhall.
