Mr. Charles Mukundi

Deputy Principal Academics

First and foremost, allow me to express my profound enthusiasm at the opportunity to address you once again through the pages of our esteemed school magazine. It brings me great joy to be part of a community that values not only academic excellence but also holistic development and effective communication. As we reflect on the previous term and look forward to the opportunities ahead, my focus remains steadfast on fostering a culture of discipline, support, and academic rigour that allows every student to thrive. In this issue, I wish to highlight the importance of shared responsibility. The success of our school environment is not solely dependent on the administration and teaching staff; it is a collective endeavour that requires the active participation of every student, parent, and member of staff. I am glad the BARICHO BOYS culture is steadily taking shape. We are not only an academic powerhouse but also an institution that helps learners achieve their individual talents. We give every learner a chance to hone their individual gifts. My office remains committed to working collaboratively with everyone to address challenges promptly, celebrate successes, and ensure that our school continues to be a safe, supportive, and stimulating place to learn. Together, we can achieve remarkable milestones. Finally, to those that are joining Baricho Boys Community, welcome and enjoy every moment of this magnificent institution. GOD BLESS ALL GOD BLESS BARICHO BOYS.
