Description
Baldwin Boys’ High School is named after its benefactor-philanthropist, John Baldwin of Berea, Ohio, USA. The name ‘Baldwin’ descends from a royal lineage and is of German extraction meaning ‘Bold Winner’. The school that was started at # 2 Alexandra Street with an aim to provide schooling for English speaking Methodist children went through much hardship during the early years plagued with paucity of funds and dwindling strength of the school. The school was on the brink of closing down. However, Mr. John Baldwin presented the school with three thousand dollars to acquire land and buildings thus resurrecting the Institution.
