About Ebenezer SHS
Robert Teiko Aryee founded Ebenezer Senior High School as a private school on the Gold Coast of Ghana on April 22, 1941. He started the school in a room in Ayalolo, Accra, where he also lived, with only six students.
The school was relocated to Korle Gonno in
1952, and then to Mamprobi. R.T. Aryee and his nephew E.K.A. Otoo (father of Ayikoi Otoo) ran the school as headmaster and assistant
headmaster until it became government assisted and C.E.A.
Martinson was appointed as headmaster in 1956. The school became a senior secondary school in 1981 as a result of a change in Ghana Education Service policy. The school is a semiautonomous secondary educational institution that is run largely by
a school Board of Governors (BOG), Parent-Teacher Association
(PTA), and Old Students’ Association (OSA).
