The Institute

Rebeca Busingye operates a secondary high school called ESSA Nyarugunga. The school serves 1100 students and employs 56 teachers, focusing on promotion of quality education, teaching children with maximum commitment, and achieves a 95% graduation rate.
Rebeca was mentored by Freda Deskin, President of The Astec School in Oklahoma City. Ms. Deskin and Ms. Busingye worked diligently to update Rebeca’s ability to manage personnel in order to retain quality teachers. Ms. Deskin involved many of her teachers in the mentoring process. They continue to work together to share knowledge.
Rebeca was very active in IEEW’s recent visit, taking IEEW staff (Lin Weigel) on a tour of the school and voicing her willingness to help IEEW with the planned women’s business center.
