72 million children of primary-school age around the world are not in school, 57% of whom are girls. For every year of education a child receives, their future earnings increase, they wait longer to have children, they make better health decisions, and their ability to make meaningful choices about their future grows. 

Grace Private School (Ecole Privée La Grâce)

Grace Private School currently has classes for Kindergarden - 9th grades, with an enrollment in the Fall of 2019 of over 400 students. Beginning in 2014 for the first time students had their own textbooks. Even government schools do not have this luxury. Teachers and students alike were excited about this provision from Grace Missions. Grace Private School has well trained teachers and is committed to providing the best education in town.

School Founder, Ibrahima Kodio

Ibrahima Kodio has a deep love for God, which overflows into a desire to share the Gospel with his fellow Malians. His desire to begin a Christian school naturally formed out of his love for the city of Koro and his desire to see a decrease in poverty, as well as for his girls to have a quality, Bible based education. Ibrahima's beautiful and intelligent wife, Rachel, is instrumental in helping run the day to day operations of Grace Private School.

Building Project

The Grace Private School building project has been an exciting vision which God is making real. The location where the school rented facilities since its foundation was not an ideal setting for a learning environment and the landlord, who is not a Christian, was not always cooperative. Purchasing our own land and building our own school paved the way for a much smoother educational environment for everyone from the headmaster to the students. The 3 floors of the new building have been completed and students are currently using these classrooms. A Kindergarten was built where three classrooms operate. And in 2019 a new building was begun to expand the primary school as enrollment continues to grow. Grace High School has one complete building and two more are in process. We hope to have a 10th grade class for the 2020-21 school year. Please pray with us as we grow!!
