Students also ensured they did their best and embraced teachers, parents and other stakeholders,” said Koech.
He said that the highest score by the school prior to last year KCSE results released today was 15 plain A’s in 2023. He said the fact that the school had limited infrastructure with only two science laboratories serving the huge population did not deter the students from posting excellent results.
