The 1995 year group of Prempeh College (SSS 95) has commissioned an 850 Watts Solar lighting system at Prempeh College to help light -up all the teaching and learning facilities at the school.
Commissioning the project, the President of the group Mr. William Asamoah Abetia said the decision to embark on the project was motivated by the recent power crisis which has bedeviled the country. Teachers and Student had bemoaned the negative impact the power crisis is having on academic work at the School and called on alumni to help.
Mr. William Asamoah Abetia urged the old boys of the school to come together to raise resources to support teaching and learning at the school since government alone cannot be saddled with all the burdens of development and maintenance of schools. He added that with the new community day senior high schools springing up, the state resources will shift from traditional schools to the new ones as a way of bringing equity into the school.
He was full of praise to the team that won this year (2015) National Science and Mathematics Quiz. He charged both the students and teachers to work assiduously to raise the academic fortunes of the school high. He said that Prempeh College is known by the quality of students it produces and urged the school to strive hard to recapture its glory.
The Cost of the Project
The entire 850 Watts electricity project which includes a five year service contract with the supplier cost the year 
group GHC 65,000. It was financed through a voluntary contribution by the group members in Ghana and the diaspora.
The Headmaster of the school, Mr. Yeboah expressed the school’s appreciation to the SSS 1995 year group for the big -hearted gift bestowed to the school. He said the school spends a lot of money to lighten up the classrooms block during evening ‘prep’ hours to enable students to study at night. He said that the solar lighting system at the school will help the school save money on electricity even when the energy crisis are over. Those savings, he said, would be directed to other areas to enhance teaching and learning.
He called on other year groups to emulate the good deeds of the SSS 95 group.
The National President of the Prempeh College Old Boys Association Snr K. F Asante thanked the year group for coming to the aid of the school. He called for coordination among the year groups to synergize efforts aimed at helping the school.
