School history
Maseno School opened in 1906 at an Anglican mission station, on land given by a local chief. Its first six pupils, all sons of chiefs in the area, were taught to read and write under a grass-thatched roof. In later decades it taught up to the junior secondary examinations, and it then grew into a full secondary school. It marked 120 years in 2026.
Today it is a national boys’ boarding school at Maseno, in Kisumu County, sponsored by the Anglican Church of Kenya. Its motto is “Perseverance Shall Win Through”.
