Kagumo High School Results

Kagumo High School is self driven by a passion for perfection. The school has its set rules and regulations that govern individual students conduct as well as inter-personal relationship between a student and other members of the school community and stakeholders.

Kagumo High School encourages and rewards self discipline where students work without much supervision. Doing the right thing at the right time and at the right place sums up self discipline. It is this self discipline that has enabled our school to shine academically and in co-curricular activities.

Peer enforced discipline plays an important role in our school. Students guide and counsel those who may not be towing the line. This is especially through the student leaders who form a hierarchy which ensures free flow of communication between the administration and the students. Discipline therefore is everybody’s responsibility with each student being a brother’s keeper. Kagumo school management however invites parents and guardians to sort out indiscipline cases that impede on the academic performance of the students and harmonial co-existence. This is especially when a student lacks self drive and self sacrifice. It is important to note being in school means denying oneself comforts and pleasures found at home for the sake of academics. This may result to indiscipline and hence the need to involve the guardian.

All in all we are clear of our mission, “To develop gentlemen of consolidated intellect”
