Mashih School is a public school for grades 1 through 8 in Mashih, Seret, Dogu’a Tembien, Tigray, Ethiopia. There is also a preparatory class.[1]
Description[edit]
The Mashih School has 10 roofed class rooms. As of 2018, the school had 658 students, 345 girls and 313 boys.[1] There were:
- 50 students in one class in Grade 0
- 85 students in two classes in Grade 1
- 88 students in two classes in Grade 2
- 95 students in two classes in Grade 3
- 92 students in two classes in Grade 4

- 68 students in two classes in Grade 6
- 67 students in two classes in Grade 7
- 60 students in one class in Grade 8
Over the last 20 years, important efforts have been done to increase schooling in Tigray, particularly of girls.[2] The large intake in primary schools in Ethiopia over the last decades has led to lack of classrooms.[3] Hence, classes take place through shifts (morning and afternoon).
Water and sanitation[edit]
In 2018, water was available at the school with intermittence. There was a hand-dug well with handpump. There were no specific facilities for girls handling menstrual hygiene;[1] this is a major reason for adolescent girls dropping out from school.[4][5][6] Up to 2018, there two toilets, pit latrines without slab.[1]
In 2018, the School WatSani project has built an Ecosan toilet building at this school.[7][8] Through nudging approach, the students are sensitised for using the sanitation and water facilities.[7] The project also constructed an irrigation canal leading to the school garden.
Transportation[edit]
All children travel to school on foot. Many students will walk more than an hour, twice a day, to come to school.[1]
Health club[edit]
There is a health club for teachers. The coordinator of the health club will take trainings at the health post. Sometimes the health worker also comes to the school to give several lessons. Once a year all the clubs of teachers from different schools get training about first aid. Sometimes there are trainings for teachers and students together.[1]
