This program provides personalized instruction in English—ranging from beginner levels to TOEFL preparation—and Mathematics, from elementary to advanced concepts. Through the Learning Upgrade app, students engage with interactive lessons while receiving continuous support from dedicated teachers, ensuring a guided and effective learning experience.
The Taliban has banned girls’ education past grade 6 indefinitely
On March 23, 2022, the Taliban reversed their decision to open girls’ schools and continued the ban on girls’ education above grade 6 indefinitely.
Millions of girls are now banned from schools and long to resume their education. Sahar’s Stealth Sisters program is even more critical than ever.
Many girls who had to leave secondary education have applied to our programs. The Secret Scholars Online program is planned for 300 students in 2025.
Students can apply online to join the program.
