In her undeterred resolve to reposition LOGISS for excellence through the creation of an enabling environment, the Board of Governors has embarked on reconstruction and renovation of LOGISS new site with The State of the Art Facilities. The academic block has relocated to the new site by the grace of God. This will help to fast track the approval of ‘The Rock University”.

Furthermore, Jesse Ephraim of SS2 also emerged 1st position at the Zonal level of the 20th Annual JETS Competition conducted by the Federal Ministry of Education. He also emerged 2nd position at the State level held at Abuja.
- Spiritual Development: Raising students to be patterned after the image of the Lord is a task that cannot be accomplished by human strength. It takes God’s mercy for lives to be truly transformed and conformed to the image of God. We are therefore grateful to Him for His transforming grace at work in the lives of the students. All efforts are focused on bringing up our students in the fear of God. We have great expectations and hope that the gospel of Christ will
bring more transformation in the lives of our students as we pray, teach and direct them to the saving power of God. The soul and spirit are strengthened on fellowship days. Born again students
with clear testimonies are given the opportunity to preach during assemblies and function in our weekly spiritual activities and morning assemblies.
We appeal to our parents/guardians to please adhere to these arrangements to enable us serve you better.
- International Examinations: LOGISS prepares and presents candidates for international examinations such as TOEFL, IELTS, ACT and SAT. Students that wish to enroll into any of the above international examinations, must score 70% average and above in their third term SS2 examination result and must have a valid international passport which is the only means of identification for the exam.

Holiday Project/Assignment: Bringing up the students to meet up with our desired goal is a collective responsibility. In the light of the above, we appeal to our parents to help in ensuring that their wards complete the projects and assignment given to them because they form part of their continuous assessment records.
