Over 500 students are enrolled in HEI. Preschool (180), Primary (200), and Secondary (150).  We have just completed the 14^th year for the school which began in 2009. A strong academic program is presented in each school, with agriculture, religious studies, computer, and trades courses (marketing, carpentry, tailoring, electrical) also offered with a more practical focus. The school is moving towards adding a university level.

HEI also owns and operates a farm that produces a wide range of fruits (pineapples, bananas, plantains, mangos, papayas, avocados, guavas, and cashews). Other industries on the rise are fishery and poultry.  Agriculture students also get to practice Animal Husbandry with the approximately 10 cows and 40 sheep that we own and house on the property.

The examination system determines promotion to the next level in all schools. The preschoolers exit with a Preschool Leaving Certificate, primary students take the HEI Common Entrance Examination, secondary students take the West African Examination Council (WAEC) exam – Jr. WAEC and Sr. WAEC.  HEI has been approved as a WAEC testing center. In addition to WAEC, HEI has started awarding high school diplomas at graduation. HEI graduated its first senior high school class in 2016.

Families are very important to us at HEI. We involve them in as many ways as possible.  Each semester we have a parent seminar on an issue that is relevant to parenting (i.e., “Financing Your Child’s Education,” “Common Illnesses,” “Nutrition and Health”). Other events include parent-teacher conferences, special events (Christmas, Easter), sports activities, etc.
