Maryland Primary and Secondary Schools
Leribe, Lesotho

With 348 students in the primary school and 200 students in the secondary school the sisters and staff in Maryland are kept busy. The secondary students are involved in both academic (science, english and math) and sport competitions. The sisters find joy in this as well as when their students are successful in their studies at the end of the year.

On-going challenges include training students to speak english (one of the two national languages) correctly; the lack of books and other resources in the library and helping teens to keep themselves away from drugs. One of the great needs of this ministry is a vehicle with which the sisters can purchase food for the students in the "feeding scheme" and to transport students to the hospital when they are injured.
