Jomo Kenyatta and Sir Charles Njonjo are some of the many high profile personalities who went to Alliance High School, a prestigious and historic school, writes ALLAN OLINGO.

The Alliance High School was founded on March 1, 1926 by the Alliance of Protestant churches, which included the Church of Scotland Mission later known as the Presbyterian Church of East Africa (PCEA).
