Our Story

From a Missionary's Dream to a Beacon of Hope

In 1997, Lady Evangelist Dorcas Salami founded this school with one conviction: that the children of Ishahayi Beach village deserved the best education at a rate their families could afford. In 2005, a partnership with Mrs. Andrea Barton and the Shining Light School Foundation carried that dream further. Today, over 3,000 alumni — engineers, medical practitioners and business leaders — testify to what one woman’s vision became.
