GBHS Mbengwi

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

It is located in mile 17 and has both boarding and day school sections. Students come from all over Cameroon (and even beyond) to attend GBHS Mbengwi. It was among the first government high schools in Cameroon. Until 1996 GBHS Mbengwi was GHS (Government High School) Mbengwi. The name changed to GBHS in the late 1990s when a French-speaking section was added to the school.

The alumni association is known by its acronym MEXSA (Mbengwi ex-Students' Association).

The Dormitory section of the school opened in the late 1990s.
