The National Association of Liberia School Principals (NALSP) on Tuesday, July 1, 2026, signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Tamma Corporation to introduce the Scholar technology program in high schools across Liberia, marking a significant step toward expanding digital learning and improving education through technology.
Announcing the agreement at a press conference on Wednesday, NALSP President Darric Dennis said the partnership demonstrates the association’s commitment to promoting innovation, educational excellence, and the responsible use of technology in schools.
“The National Association of Liberia School Principals is pleased to announce the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding with Tamma Corporation to support the introduction and implementation of its innovative technology initiative, Scholar, for high schools in Liberia,” Dennis told reporters.
He noted that as education continues to evolve in the digital era, schools and administrators must embrace technological solutions that improve teaching and learning while equipping students with the skills needed for the future.
According to Dennis, the Scholar program will provide participating high schools with a digital platform designed to strengthen classroom instruction, improve communication between schools and stakeholders, and increase access to educational resources.
Under the partnership, NALSP and Tamma Corporation will collaborate to engage school leaders, conduct awareness campaigns, and support the successful implementation of the technology initiative in participating schools nationwide.
H. E. Derric Dennis emphasized that educational transformation can only be achieved through strong collaboration among educators, government, the private sector, parents, and development partners.
He said NALSP welcomes initiatives that complement Liberia’s national education agenda while respecting the policies and standards established by the Ministry of Education.
As implementation begins, Dennis called on school principals to actively participate in orientation and capacity-building programs that will accompany the rollout of the Scholar platform. He also urged school communities to ensure technology is used safely, ethically, and effectively to enhance student learning outcomes.
The NALSP President expressed appreciation to Tamma Corporation for investing in educational innovation in Liberia and for partnering with the association to improve learning opportunities for students.
He said the collaboration aims to strengthen school leadership, expand access to quality educational resources, and better prepare Liberia’s young people for success in the 21st-century digital economy.
Liberia has been pursuing reforms aimed at improving the quality of education, particularly through increased use of information and communication technology in classrooms. However, many schools continue to face challenges including limited access to digital infrastructure, inadequate internet connectivity, and shortages of modern teaching and learning resources.
The Ministry of Education has consistently encouraged partnerships with private sector institutions and development organizations to bridge these gaps and support the country’s education transformation agenda.
The agreement between NALSP and Tamma Corporation comes at a time when digital learning platforms are becoming increasingly important in education systems worldwide. The COVID-19 pandemic accelerated the adoption of technology in teaching and learning, highlighting the need for schools to integrate digital tools that support both classroom and remote instruction.
Education stakeholders say initiatives such as the Scholar program have the potential to improve access to learning materials, enhance communication among teachers, students, and parents, and strengthen school administration. If successfully implemented, the partnership could contribute to Liberia’s broader efforts to modernize secondary education and better prepare students with the digital competencies required for higher education and the evolving job market.
