The 2001 year group of the Okuapemman Past Students Association (OKUAS 2G1) has constructed an ultra-modern toilet facility for their alma mater (Okuapemman Senior High School) to address the sanitation and hygiene needs of its students.
The facility, which costs a little over GH₵200,000.00, has 16 cubicles, each having a modern toilet bowl with a cistern, four urinal bowls, four hand washing basins, and an inner storeroom to keep detergents and other cleaning materials.
It has one of the best roofing materials, doors and adjustable aluminium and glass windows, and it is also equipped with a complete water supply system made up of a mechanised borehole with a pumping machine and an overhead water reservoir to supply water continuously.
The OKUAS 2G1 constructed the facility to mark 20 years of leaving the school. Mrs Nancy Assor Asiedu-Amrado, Vice President and Project Committee Chairperson of OKUAS 2G1 speaking during the inauguration of the facility at the school, said the gesture was their way of showing appreciation to the school.
She said, "We're indeed proud of being past students of Okuapemman Senior High and we believe this kind gesture is a way of expressing how grateful we are to the school for nurturing us and allowing us to make a living through secondary education."
The Okuapemman SHS is a Category "A" coeducational institution and a Science Resource Centre located in the Akuapim North District of the Eastern Region, which has the physical infrastructure, the human resources, and a unique mandate to train students, who have normal vision and the visually impaired.
The unique mandate of the school makes it the ultimate choice and destination for many families that are seeking an all-inclusive quality education for their children and wards.
The recent influx and increase in student enrollment have worsened the state of the school's only toilet facility serving two of the male houses; namely Opoku Acheampong House and Kwadade House.
