Atse Yohannes School is a public school for grades 1 through 8 in Zala, Degol Woyane, Dogu’a Tembien, Tigray, Ethiopia.[1]
Description[edit]
The Atse Yohannes School holds four classrooms. In 2020, the school had 362 students, 209 girls and 153 boys.[1] There were:
- 56 students in one class in Grade 1
- 62 students in one class in Grade 2
- 47 students in one class in Grade 3
- 43 students in one class in Grade 4
- 36 students in one class in Grade 5

- 26 students in one class in Grade 7
- 48 students in one class in Grade 8
Classes are organised by morning and afternoon shifts, using the same classrooms.
Water and sanitation[edit]
Water is available in a spring nearby the school. There were no specific facilities for girls handling menstrual hygiene; this is a major reason for adolescent girls dropping out from school.[2][3][4] Up to 2020, there was no toilet building in the school compound.[1]
In 2020, the School WatSani project has built an Ecosan toilet building at this school. Through nudging approach, the students are sensitised for using the sanitation facilities.[5][6]
Transportation[edit]
All children travel to school on foot. Many students will walk more than an hour, twice a day, to come to school.[7]
School name[edit]
The school is named after Ethiopian Emperor Yohannes IV who was born in this village and baptised in the nearby May Baha rock church.[8][9]
Homonymous school[edit]
This school should not be confused with the Atse Yohannes Primary and Secondary school in Mekelle, which is way larger in number of students, and much better equipped.[10]
