School On The Go — Bringing classrooms to students
Giving children a chance to learn is one of the most urgent priorities in Liberia. Liberia Literary Society envisions building a smarter generation who will take Liberia towards superior progress and contribute to the global community! We believe access to quality education for all can make it happen! Given the importance of education for shaping the Liberian society of tomorrow, our No Child Left Behind in Liberia is set up on the practice of educating children at an orphanage and in rural communities that aren’t part of the public schooling system. A certified teacher in person will carry this out.
Liberia Literary Society is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. Our mission is to provide resources to preserve Liberia’s literary works, advance girls’ education and youth development, and give children access to quality education, one of today’s most urgent priorities.
Teacher Jeanette No Child Left Behind Initiative: This initiative honors the matriarch of the Lewis family, Jeanette B. Lewis, who dedicated her entire life to the care of children, always surrounded by children, loving, teaching, or mothering. As a teacher to preschoolers and kindergarteners, her classrooms were more like being part of a big family than a classroom. No one got bullied, and everyone felt they belonged. Experienced at loving and mothering, Teacher Jeanette, as always called, had soft eyes and a soft voice, but she had the right blend of assertiveness and confidence to keep her class in order. She never turned an advantage through belittling her students or stamping authority. She taught with the passion of a lifelong teacher who lived to inspire a love of learning in all who sat under her voice. She treated her students as if she’d known them her whole life. And she never used a cane.
Bringing the classroom to the students: we continue a traditional setting in which the children are taught subjects such as mathematics, reading, social studies, science, grammar, spelling, growth mindset, and good character building within a structured schedule created by the initiative director, using packaged curriculum books (Teacher Jeanette Kinder Kollege) specifically developed for Liberia.
We aim to help children meet the basic needs of quality primary education. We believe that every child is precious and that every life has a purpose. Liberia’s children deserve the right to build their lives with a solid foundation for their educational journey. The overriding goal is to educate these students using a rich academic curriculum with an emphasis on good character development.
The program includes a 1:25 Teacher-to-student ratio, using Teacher JeanetteKinder Kollege’s workbooks (phonics, growth mindset, math, science, social studies, Bible stories, language arts, reading, writing, spelling, technology, and handwriting) and comes in a backpack with school supplies. Students are expected to complete each level and meet all set goals in time, following the Liberian Education Ministry’s laws and policies. Teacher Jeanette Kinder Kollege’s Workbooks are designed to deliver the highest standard in today’s pre-elementary education. These workbooks provide plenty of practice for students to succeed in primer kindergarten and beyond! LLS-No Child Left Behind currently works in Liberia.
A Primer Workbook to help students of all ages start learning letters of the alphabet, numbers, shapes, and colors includes Sight Words for Pre-K and Kindergarten.

The program also hires a local teacher to offer primary education using the workbooks and a teaching manual. This program is reaching children in areas that have no schools, and if anyone would like to help us reach more kids in more remote parts of Liberia, you can contribute here:
Education in Liberia is free for primary students attending a government school, but most of these schools lack adequate learning facilities. Most parents prefer sending their kids to private schools, which are often very expensive for the average Liberian.
Given the importance of education for shaping the Liberian society of tomorrow, our No Child Left Behind in Liberia is set on the practice of educating children at an orphanage or rural community that isn’t part of the public schooling system. This is carried out by a teacher in person.
