Monrovia Consolidated School System - MCSS Liberia

We should all be glad to see our students finally receiving chairs, because this has been one of the major challenges we continue to face. But let me be clear as the President of the MCSS Students Union: we do not want people parading misinformation, claiming that Mr. Robertson brought corrugated armchairs to MCSS.

The truth is, those chairs came through Suspended Superintendent James Momoh. Everyone knows the issue of chairs caused serious misunderstandings in the system, and for the PRO to now post information that gives the glory to Mr. Robertson is wrong. We must be rational.

MCSS needs real development, not people taking credit for the work of others just to shine. Our schools are suffering from a shortage of chairs. If Mr. Robertson had genuinely provided new chairs for MCSS, the students would proudly celebrate him. But taking the leftover chairs that remained after Mr. Momoh’s distribution, and then trying to pass it off as his own contribution, is unacceptable.

Let us remember: it was this same chair issue that brought Mr. Momoh to public ridicule on Spoon TV, which eventually led to his suspension. Mr. Robertson even went around to different campuses, especially D. Twe Memorial, collecting the remaining chairs and desks to send to neighboring MCSS schools, yet the PRO now posts such misleading information.

We as students say no to this. If Mr. Robertson wants to be appreciated, let him bring his own chairs. Until then, we will not applaud recycled glory. MCSS deserves truth, creativity, and real solutions, not propaganda.

Revolutionary Birthday Tribute to President Jessey W. Togba – The Voice of D. Twe Memorial High School and District #16

Today, we proudly raise our voices in celebration of a leader who has not only served but transformed — a young man whose commitment to justice, education, and student rights continues to inspire a generation.

On this special day, we honor the birthday of President Jessey W. Togba, President of the Student Council Government of D. Twe Memorial High School, the # 1 ranked school in District #16.

President Togba has distinguished himself as a fearless advocate for equity in education, leading a bold and principled fight against systemic challenges that have long hindered student progress. Under his administration, the Student Council has made historic gains:

-Successfully challenged and defeated the 65 students-per-class policy, restoring the right to quality learning environments.

-Led efforts that exposed and reversed the unlawful dismissal of the school’s principal,
ensuring justice and accountability.

-Advocated tirelessly for
MCSS volunteer teachers, resulting in concrete steps being taken to place them on the national payroll — a victory for dignity and fairness in education.

These are not just victories for D. Twe Memorial — they are victories for every student and teacher across the system who has ever felt ignored, overlooked, or silenced.

President Togba’s leadership is not built on empty promises, but on visible change. His courage has restored confidence in student leadership, and his passion continues to spark hope in classrooms across system.

As we celebrate his life today, we also recommit ourselves to the journey he has helped shape — one of empowerment, justice, and educational transformation.

Happy Birthday, President Jessey W. Togba!

May your new chapter be filled with greater victories, deeper wisdom, and continued service to the student body and beyond.

Long live the voice of the students.
Long live D. Twe Memorial High School.
Long live District #16.

(CONCERNED STUDENTS OF MCSS WRITES)

MCSS CONCERNED STUDENTS,
Official Statement from Concerned Students of MCSS.

Date:[Sep 11, 2025]
To: Central Administration, MCSS
From: Concerned Students of the Monrovia Consolidated School System (MCSS)
Subject: Urgent Call to Reconsider the 65 Students per Class Policy

Dear Acting Superintendent and Members of the Central Administration,

We, the concerned students of MCSS, write to express our deep frustration and urgent concern regarding the recently enforced policy mandating 65 students per classroom across our schools.

This policy is not only unreasonable and unsafe, but it is also a direct attack on the quality of education we deserve. The overcrowding is overwhelming teachers, limiting learning, and putting student well-being at risk. If this situation continues unchecked, we will have no choice but to mobilize a system-wide protest in defense of our right to learn in a safe and effective environment.

We also raise a critical question that the Central Office has failed to address:
What will happen to the many students who were promoted from 10th to 11th grade but couldn’t register on time due to financial challenges?
Are they to be left in the streets during school hours? Are they to be ignored and forgotten by a system that was built to serve them?

If this administration cannot find room in its schools for its own students, what message are you sending to the youth of this nation?

Let it be clear:
If the Acting Superintendent fails to act swiftly, we will hold her and the entire Central Administration accountable.
No amount of dismissive statements will silence us. We are not afraid.

Our Demands:

1. Immediate review and reversal
of the 65-student classroom cap.

2. Emergency accommodations for students who missed early registration due to financial hardship.

3. Active student representation in decision-making processes that directly affect our education.

We remind you: MCSS is all we have. And we will not allow it to collapse under poor leadership and unjust policies.

Long live the concerned students of MCSS.
Long live MCSS.

A Critique of the 65-Students Policy Under the Monrovia Consolidated School System

The recent pronouncement by Dr. Augurie Steven, Superintendent of the Monrovia Consolidated School System (MCSS), mandating that all public schools under the system limit enrollment to 65 students per class, is deeply concerning and must be challenged. While the intent may have been to promote quality education through smaller class sizes, the reality of Liberia’s educational and economic context makes this policy not only impractical but also harmful to thousands of struggling students.

Why This Policy Endangers Students

1. Exclusion of Vulnerable Students

The MCSS schools, particularly D. Twe Memorial High School, serve as the only hope for hundreds of students in the Borough and beyond who cannot afford private school tuition. By restricting class sizes to 65, the policy automatically forces out students who deserve an education but lack the financial means.

In a society where public schools are overcrowded precisely because of poverty, such a policy creates an artificial barrier that punishes the poor.

2. Disregard for Educational Access

Education is a fundamental right guaranteed by the Constitution of Liberia and reinforced by international conventions Liberia has signed, including the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). This policy undermines those commitments by denying access to education for hundreds of students.

3. Ignoring the Reality of Infrastructure

Schools under MCSS, including D. Twe, have long suffered from inadequate classrooms and insufficient renovations. Rather than solving the problem of overcrowding through investment in infrastructure, the Superintendent’s policy seeks to solve it by exclusion—an approach that is unfair and counterproductive.

4. Risk of Social Unrest

When government policies deliberately push students out of classrooms, it creates frustration, despair, and resistance among young people. Such decisions can spark protests, distrust in the education system, and a breakdown of community-school relations.

Policy Recommendations

Instead of implementing a one-size-fits-all 65-students-per-class cap, the MCSS should pursue policies that balance quality with accessibility:

1. Expand Infrastructure and Renovation Programs

Increase investment in constructing additional classrooms and renovating existing structures at MCSS schools. This will naturally reduce overcrowding without forcing students out.

2. Recruit and Deploy More Teachers

Addressing overcrowding requires not just physical space but also manpower. Recruiting additional qualified teachers and assigning them to heavily congested schools will improve student-teacher ratios.

3. Adopt a Double-Shift System Where Necessary

In the short term, schools could implement double-shift schedules (morning and afternoon sessions). This will allow more students to be accommodated without compromising learning conditions.

4. Partnership with Communities and Alumni

Engage Parent-Teacher Associations (PTAs), community leaders, and alumni networks in mobilizing resources for classroom expansion and teacher support.

5. Equitable Access Policy

Any student placement or enrollment regulation under MCSS should prioritize access and inclusion, not exclusion. Education policies must be built on the principle that no student is left behind.

Conclusion

Dr. Augurie Steven’s policy of restricting class sizes to 65 under MCSS is not only poorly timed but also dangerous for students who depend on public schools. Instead of closing the doors of education to the underprivileged, MCSS should champion inclusive reforms that expand access, improve infrastructure, and strengthen teaching capacity. Liberia’s education system can only progress if policies are people-centered, realistic, and guided by the vision of education for all.

PUBLIC STATEMENT TO HON. ROBERT B. TEAH: A WARNING AND A CALL TO RESPONSIBLE LEADERSHIP

We, the students of D.Twe, speak not out of fear, nor for favor, and certainly not in silence. We speak with boldness, unity, and unwavering purpose. This public message is addressed directly to Hon. Robert B. Teah and his team and we post it here for the world to witness where we stand, and how far we are willing to go to defend our dignity, our rights, and our future.

Hon. Teah, take notice:
Any action you take that goes against the welfare and interests of the student body any attempt to destabilize, suppress, or harm students we will not go unanswered. You will feel the full tension of the students. We are no longer the silent, overlooked generation. We are alert, connected, and prepared. If you try to suppress our voice, we will rise not with violence, but with unity, resistance, and truth.

It is becoming increasingly clear that you have failed to offer a real solution to the ongoing challenges with the students of D.Twe . Rather than working toward resolution, you have chosen self serving confusion. Instead of listening, you dictate. Instead of founding remedy to the students complain, you elevate your own interests. You have shown, through your conduct, that your capacity to lead with wisdom and fairness is deeply lacking.

We must now declare plainly: you have proven incapable of leading or serving as a father figure to the student body. A leader seeks peace, but you fuel conflict. A leader uplifts others, but you push them down. A leader brings people together you choose division. Your record speaks, and it reveals failure not because you lack power, but because you lack purpose and principle.

Let us remind you and the public of who students are and what we represent. We are not just learners in classrooms. We are the builders of tomorrow. We are the advocates, the healers, the visionaries, and the future leaders of this nation. The impact of students on society is not imaginary. It is historical. From policy to protest, students have always been a voice of conscience and a force for change.

Your efforts to silence and undermine us are not only misguided, they are dangerous. You seek to destroy the very foundation that this country’s future depends on. If you hurt the students, you hurt Liberia. If you suppress us, you stall progress. If you ignore us, you expose your inability to lead.

We are no longer asking we are demanding. Our rights are not optional. They are guaranteed. And we will protect them with everything we have. If you attempt to push your own selfish agenda at the expense of our education, our growth, or our future, we will rise up as one body, united and determined. You will face the full moral and civic force of the student of D.Twe.

You have underestimated us, and that will be your greatest mistake. We are not divided. We are awake. We are determined. We are stronger than you think. We do not fear positions we respect principles. And when leaders fail, we hold them accountable.

Your legacy is now in question. Will you be remembered as a man who listened and changed course? Or will you be remembered as the one who turned his back on the students and was brought down by the same people he underestimated?

We are calling on you now loudly, publicly, and boldly:

-STOP every plan designed to suppress the students.
-STOP using your title as a weapon.
-STOP sacrificing our rights for your own gain.
-START leading with integrity.
-START listening to the people who matter most in education the students.

This warning is not emotional. It is intentional. You may hold a title, but we hold the future. And we will protect it with our voices, our minds, and our unity.

Let this be known:

We, the students, are united.
We are informed.
We are fearless.
We are watching every move, recording every word, and remembering every betrayal. When the time comes, we will act not with destruction, but with focus and force of will. Because this is our future, and we will not let anyone sabotage it.

To every parent, leader, citizen, and ally reading this we ask you to stand with us. This is not just about one man. It is about the kind of education and leadership our country deserves. Let us defend it together.

Hon. Teah, you still have a choice. Choose dignity. Choose duty. Choose peace. But if you continue on this path of manipulation and harm, you will feel the tension of the students in full.

This is not just a warning. It is a promise.
