Apam Secondary School (APASS) is gearing up for a momentous milestone as it celebrates its 70th anniversary. This significant event not only marks seven decades of providing quality education but also highlights the school’s commitment to sustaining its gains in the ever-evolving technological world. With a grand durbar scheduled for tomorrow, Saturday, May 27, 2023, APASS is poised to commemorate this achievement in a memorable way.

The theme for the 70th-anniversary celebration is “70 Years Of Quality Education: Sustaining Our Gains In The New Technological World”. This theme encapsulates the school’s dedication to adapting to the rapid changes brought about by technology while upholding its commitment to delivering excellence in education.

Activities

The week-long celebration kicked off with a series of activities that showcased the school’s accomplishments and its enduring impact on the community.

Today, Friday, May 26, a vibrant float procession will capture the attention of Apam residents as old and current students make their way from Apam Junction to Apam Town. This colorful display will celebrate the school’s rich history and provide an opportunity for the community to join in the festivities.

Following the float procession, an important event will take place. This is the inspection and commissioning of various projects undertaken by the Apam Secondary School Old Students Association (ASSOSA). These projects, aimed at improving the school’s infrastructure and facilities, serve as a testament to the collective efforts of the alumni in giving back to their alma mater. By investing in these enhancements, ASSOSA ensures that future generations of students will benefit from an enriched learning environment.

This gesture exemplifies the school’s ethos of service to others and reinforces its role as a responsible and compassionate institution within the community. By extending support to the hospital, APASS and ASSOSA will demonstrate their commitment to the overall well-being of the Apam community.
