PROGRAM DETAILS:
Students of the Cornerstone Leadership Academy are admitted on a scholarship basis only, in that, out of thousands of applicants each year scholarships are awarded to the best 30 boys and 30 girls each year to make up the entire class cohort. Our students do not pay fees so we give priority to those that are financially disadvantaged but are able to meet all other expectation, so financial need alone does not qualify one for admission. Admitted students are also required to do a work contribution while at the academy and are required to do community service every term.
Co-curricular activities: In addition to academic subjects, students must participate in our character development curriculum in which we teach the timeless, universal principles like forgiveness, honesty, integrity, compassion, kindness, hard work, humility, and service to the less fortunate - as exemplified in the teachings of Jesus and the perennial wisdom of all traditions – but without affiliation to any one institutional religious group.
Note – Students must be willing to participate fully in sessions covering Discipleship Materials, Character Development, Leadership Principles and Social Events - any student not interested in these does not qualify to join the academy.
As a way of reaching out we are also involved in:
- Students leadership workshops [invite other students from other schools]
- Students leadership conferences in different provinces every year
- Do community service in the neighborhood
- Our students are involved in extracurricular activities (i.e. music and drama and have been able to produce various music albums and educative movies)
Every year we graduate students out of the leadership course and are given certificates to the
Academic combinations available.
The school has exhibited very strong academic performance and continuous improvement since establishment, and so far all our graduates have been able to join different universities in Rwanda, Tanzania, Kenya, Uganda, Burundi, and even farther abroad (e.g. USA, Canada, China, Europe, etc).
