Old students of Christian Methodist Senior High School have been asked to complement efforts towards revamping the school.
The call was made during a fundraising and reunion dinner meeting held at Green Pepper Restuarant at East Legon in Accra.
The function attended by more than 100 former students raised thousands of Ghana cedis both in pledges and cash to support the completion of the School’s girls’ dormitory.
The Chairman for the night, Anyemi Samuel Korboe, challenged the old students to support the school to get back on its feet.
We all have a stake in the future of our former school. We are obliged to achieve and maintain for our students and staff high academic and discipline standards to produce God-fearing people who are patriotic and developmental and together we can,” he said.

If we get 10 year groups contributing GHc3,500 each, by the end of this year we will have 35,000 to support other dvelopmental projects int eh school. Let’s heed to this call and lift the image of the school,” he pleaded.

The school was established in September 1960 by the Late Rev. Gordon Nii Akwei Quaye of blessed memory with funding from the United States-based Christian Methodist Episcopal Church. The school was initially located, in rented premises, at Asylum Down, near the Kwame Nkrumah Circle.
