Ngara Girls' High School
Ngara Girls' High School is a girls'-only boarding school in Nairobi, Kenya.
In January 1957 it opened as a mixed-sex secondary school for Indian Kenyan students. It served Ngara and Parklands. Male students were transferred out of Ngara, making the school girls' only, in 1962. Boys who previously attended Ngara began attending Highway Secondary School in South B. Ngara opened to students of all races after 1964, when racial segregation in schooling ended. In 2004 the school's boarding facilities opened. The funding came from a 1996 Community Development Trust Fund (CDTF) grant.[1]
