A Day in the Life of a JPSS Student

There are 579 young men and women attending JPSS.  All have worked hard in order to attend this highly-ranked school.  

They have ambition and dream of going to university. 

A day in the life of a JPSS student indicates they study hard, play hard, show initiative and enjoy exhibiting their competitive skills.


JPSS students study hard – but they also participate in extracurricular activities and they do well! 

They win awards in business entrepreneurship, and they build teamwork and successfully compete in sports.

Like All Scholars – They’re Competitive!

Hungerford Scholars:  Desire. Determination. Hope. Generosity.

Chelekura, Uganda is a village of abject poverty and subsistence farming.  Now,up to 10 students in the village of Chelekura each year may earn full tuition and boarding to attend JPSS. There are currently 63 Hungerford Scholars – represented in all S1-S6 classes.

Teachers:  Degreed. Dedicated. Disciplined.

These are just two of the dedicated teachers at JPSS.  Many live in Teacher Housing – these teachers bike more than five miles to work each day.

The school administrator and Headmaster have strict standards for teachers.  Besides being degreed, they must be good mentors, dedicated to the school, good at building team spirit, self-driven and disciplined.  

And . . . most importantly, they truly care for their students.
