Nakuru Girls School Background.

The school history can be traced back to colonial error, being established to serve the children of the white settlers. The school was founded in 1922 not to serve African children but European children who at the time were running the country.

In 1927, the school was officially commissioned as Nakuru European School to serve the children of white settlers from the Western region of the then British Colonial. Four decades down the line, Kenya gained its independence and it was time to reclaim what it had lost including schools.

Nakuru European School was among the schools that were taken over by the government. Following the takeover, the school was renamed Nakuru Girls High School, and African girls were enrolled in the school this led white settlers to withdraw their children from the school.

The government went on and awarded it with national school status same as Starehe School which was also a European school. Since then, the school has been producing women of integrity in society and it has played a huge role in empowering the girls.
