Our strategic vision for construction of this permanent campus is to build
a school campus that is sustainable, both environmentally and economically.
To get there, we are seeking private sector investment in operational and
capital support. We ask you to join our capital campaign for GOSESO’s
permanent residential campus, “School within Walls”, in the heart
of our 500-acre Kitobe Forest.
GOSESO campus design is based on traditional African campfire style architecture, which features multiple courtyards linked with indigenous trees—all designed to foster creative thinking and dialogue. The campus design features state-of-the-art education and environmental-conscientious technology.
We are now inviting people to be a part of this capital campaign through any amount possible. We also have naming opportunities. Please, contact GOSESO now to discuss possibilities. Three construction stages have been identified:
Stage One: The Academic Life. Academic buildings for a world-class education will be constructed during this stage including seven classrooms, a library, a computer lab, a cafeteria, and relevant student and faculty housing. By 2011, we anticipate half of our 200 students will reside on campus while the remainder will be day students from nearby villages.
Stage Two: Expanding our Reach. The second stage will increase capacity to 300 students by 2013. Additional academic and housing infrastructures will be necessary.
Stage Three: Strengthening Academics and Research. This final stage
is when we plan to grow to reach our maximum capacity of 500 students by 2015.
