Baltimore

The Genesis School in Baltimore was founded in 1963 by SOLAGE prenes "Eryes" Lite to address the lack of education in the area. Affiliated with the Assemblée de Dieu de Baltimore in 1980, the school faced difficulty sending students to state exams as it was not recognized by the Ministry of National Education. In 1992, the school changed its mission and became affiliated with the Evangelical Baptist Mission, allowing students to take public exams. The school now operates independently and offers first, second, and third cycles with a staff of 16 employees.

Parents, students, and teachers in the region face significant challenges, such as high living costs, lack of access to food and shelter, and unsatisfactory salaries.

In 1963, SOLAGE prenes "Eryes" Lite founded the Genesis School in Baltimore after observing that the local population was struggling to obtain an education due to the lack of schools in the area. He faced significant challenges, starting with a few students and being the only teacher. By 1980, the school was affiliated with the Mission of De De Die Assembly, later renamed Assemblée de Dieu de Baltimore. With about 200 students, the school was the only option in the region, but it was not recognized by the Ministry of National Education and therefore unable to send students to state exams. In 1992, the school changed its mission and name after becoming affiliated with the Evangelical Baptist Mission. The Reverend Pastor Jean Lemeck Thomas renamed all school stations to "GENEZ," allowing the school to send children to public exams on EXODUS schools. With the help of Pastor Maryo schools in 2000, the school was able to send its students to state tests. The school has continued to send students to exams and recently obtained permission to operate independently of the exodus. The school offers first, second, and third cycles and has a staff of 16 employees, including administrative staff, teachers, tutors, and managers.The Evangelical School Genesis of Baltimore is located in the 2nd communal section Fond des Blancs, on the road to Cotes Fer, at the entrance of Digicel Carrefour Boudarie. To contact the school, call 39459523/44471309.Parents in the region face significant challenges, including high living costs, difficulty feeding and clothing their children, and lack of transportation and shelter. Students at the school also experience hardships, such as lack of access to hot meals and appropriate clothing and shoes. Hunger and poverty often prevent children from attending school. Teachers at the school also face challenges, including unsatisfactory salaries that do not meet their families' needs.
