Hope Haven started in April of 2012 with a few classes of preschool students under a tree. We saw a need for education in the community of Murindi and wanted to help by providing education for students who otherwise would not have been able to attend school. Since then, we have grown to a school of over 2,000 students in preschool through secondary school. Our focus remains on providing educational opportunities for students whose families struggle with poverty.
Our Mission
Hope Haven Christian School transforms students and their families through Christ-centered education and discipleship with uncompromising excellence, shaping the future of Rwanda and stewarding Christian world leaders
Enrollment
Hope Haven does not have an open enrollment policy.
Most of our students are hand-selected from families in the surrounding community and begin school at age three, continuing through each grade level with very few transferring out. Because classroom space is limited, we focus on serving students from economically and sociologically challenging backgrounds.
Applications for the 2026-2027 school year are no longer being accepted. The deadline for submission was July 13, 2026
Please do not contact Hope Haven staff or administration about enrollment. Only applications submitted during the application window will be reviewed.
Tuition and Fees
Tuition and fees are charged for every student at Hope Haven.
The amount varies depending on grade level and family income. More details will be provided upon acceptance, and an agreement must be signed before the academic year commences. Amounts due must be paid in advance of each term. Past due accounts will result in students not being allowed to attend school.
Our Vision
Hope Haven Christian School forges a future where our Christian community leads the flourishing of Rwanda and influences the world
