Academics
Clay students can be assured that their individual skills will be mentored and accommodated throughout their education. They will get the help they need to find their voice whether in classroom discussions or peer projects. A values-based curriculum with focus on character development points them toward responsible citizenship and productive lives after graduation – from local village development to contributions to their country as well. This approach underscores a full course load of subjects including English, Kiswahili Math, Chemistry, Physics, Biology, History, Geography, Computers, Business, Agriculture and Religion. Visits from international guests and sponsors expose the students to a broad worldview.
