Kumasi Senior High has sent a strong message to competitors as the Ashanti regional qualifiers of the 2019 National Science and Maths Quiz (NSMQ) kicked start Monday.
The school based at Gyinyase in the Ashanti capital, Kumasi scored a gargantuan 77 points, which is very rare in recent times of the Primetime TV quiz.

They were ousted from the contest in 2018 after falling 3 points short of St Louis SHS’ 43 points at the one-eighth stage.
But they look poised to go further in the competition as they left Kofi Agyei SHS trailing with 18 points with Dadease Agric SHS scoring 16 points and Konadu Yiadom Catholic SHS getting a paltry 15 point.
