The Ghana Education Service (GES) has announced that today, January 5, 2019, is the reopening date for final year and first-year Green Track Senior High School, students.

A statement issued on Tuesday and signed by Head of Public Relations at the GES, Cassandra Twum Ampofo said the early reopening is to give the final year students ample time to prepare towards the West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE).

“Students on the Gold track who went for the Christmas break are also to report back to school to continue their 1st Semester on the same 5th January 2019,” the statement said.
