\u201cOur goal as a forward-thinking academic institution is to ensure that our students, especially the girls, are served with academic excellence and help them prepare for the road to success ahead.\u201d<\/p>\n

Kaonga said among the girls who have passed the exams, one girl, Esther Chavula, has surpassed everybody by amassing the highest grades overall than the rest.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs Maranatha we are going to reward the top most high grade score performer at our girls campus who is Esther Chavula,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe will also recognize and award boys who have emerged as most outstanding,\u201d said Kaonga. Pass rate for the boys is 99 per cent, as out of 82 students at the boys campus who sat for JCE just only one failed.<\/p>\n

He added: \u201cWe are proud of this great achievement and as Maranatha we will always strive for the best. Apart from Esther Chavula , the school has also managed to produce many students with high flying grades.<\/p>\n

Kaonga also revealed that , the school will celebrate such a remarkable performance by preparing the brilliant students banquet when they open school with an intention to signify the appreciation of highest academic excellence in line with government\u2019s vision of promoting quality education.<\/p>\n
