Pomp and pageantry pervaded the air on Tuesday, October 14, as one of the leading schools in Ondo State, Zenith Scholars Academy, celebrated yet another graduation ceremony of its students.
The top-notch event which was held at Benima Hotel in Akungba-Akoko was well attended by students, their parents and guardians.
Speaking at the colorful event, the School's Director, Mr. Jayeola Afolabi, said despite the negative effect of Covid-19 pandemic, Zenith Academy still managed to offer qualitative education to learners under their care.
Jayeola also noted that the school complied with all precautionary measures highlighted by medical experts as part of the efforts to curb the wide spread of the novel virus.
While assuring staff and parents on new initiatives that will aid effective learning, the Director said the Management will expedite action on all ongoing projects, adding that concerted efforts were on to establish the College Section of Zenith Scholars Academy.
He, however, said that despite the biting effect of the pandemic, coupled with national economic downturn, the School has no plan to upwardly review its tuition fees.
Earlier, the Chairman of the event, Chief Ogunrotimi Simeon, lauded the unbeatable performance of the pupils as they showcased their talents.
Ogunrotimi said: "Zenith Scholars Academy is one of the best schools in Ondo State. The School has enhanced the God-given talents of the pupils here today.
"I want to thank the Management for inculcating both morals and academics in the pupils", he concluded.
In the same vein, the Proprietress, Jayeola Folasekemi, hailed the teachers of the school, for their dedication to work in ensuring that the pupils performed very well in their 3rd term examination.
While rating Zenith Academy among its peers, the Proprietress noted that her school is 'second to none', maintaining that their graduates are making waves everywhere.
As a testimonial of performance, a parent who graced the occasion, Raphael Deborah, urged the school to upgrade to a Secondary School status.
Citing unfavorable economy, Deborah pleaded with the Management to retain their affordable fees.
