ALA and Your Child: A Message to Prospective Parents/Guardians

Dear Parent/Guardian:

Sending your child away to school – and particularly to a school far from home – is not an easy decision. Thank you for considering African Leadership Academy as an option for your child’s final two years of secondary education.

At African Leadership Academy, we seek to create a nurturing environment that enables each student to reach their academic and leadership potential. Your child will live in a comfortable dormitory on a secure campus and will be supervised by watchful, caring house parents. Each day, your child will study and interact with experienced faculty who put the needs of students first.

If your child meets our selection criteria, African Leadership Academy might be an ideal environment in which your child can finish secondary school and build a foundation for the future. African Leadership Academy is a very intense and highly rewarding two-year experience. While your child is on campus, we will prepare him/her for entrance into the world’s finest universities. And after graduation, we will maintain a lifetime connection that links your child to exciting and rewarding internship and career opportunities. In this way, African Leadership Academy is a unique “accelerator” for the most promising young leaders from across the African continent.

Is African Leadership Academy the right environment for your child? I encourage you to read through our materials and ask us questions. We are never more than an email, phone call, or SMS away. We look forward to working with you as you consider whether our institution might be a strong fit for your child.

Thank you for your consideration, and best wishes.

Dean Chris Khaemba
