Methodist Girls' High School (Meghis) is a Ghanaian girls' second-cycle institution at Mamfe, in the Akuapim North District of the Eastern Region.[3][4]

History

[edit]

The school was established in 1984 as a private institution called Mamfe State College. However, due to financial, administrative and staffing problems, in 1988 the school was handed over to the Methodist Church Ghana, as a result it was renamed to Methodist High School. Government absorbed the school into the public system in January 1993.[5]

Achievements

[edit]

Mamfe Methodist girls won the 2019 World ROBOFEST competition held at Michigan in the United States of America.[6]

The Methodist Girls High School (MEGHIS), once again emerged winners of World Robotic Competition in 2020.[7]
