Developing Community
The Dougbe River Presbyterian School of Liberia was born out of the collective support of 12 villages. In a region and country still recovering from a succession of civil wars, such collaboration and shared effort are themselves a cause for celebration. The school responds to this support by opening its campus as a central gathering place for the villages and committing to the education and feeding of children from those communities free of charge.

In addition, a parent teacher organization comprised of parents from all the communities advises the school administration and executive director regarding school programming and community needs. The Board takes this feedback into consideration as it examines and plans for the strategic needs of the school. In the end, the school and its operations are intended to be a partnership with the villages, not a mission to them.
