Medea is located in a place adjacent to high mountains. The farmland available is extremely small; the soil is stony, and too dry for cultivation. The majority of the population lives under poverty line.

The diocesan school was established in the year 1995 when there was no school in the area and has contributed a lot to the community by giving formal education according to the curriculum and policy of Education of the country. Moral education is also given at all grades in all parish schools with the vision: "to establish the kingdom of God through promoting integral human development, focusing on the development of person in general body- soul."

The community appreciates the way the school educates the young with academic subjects and above all the commitment and follow up to foster the spiritual and moral values of Catholic Church. The basic ideas of Christian ethics are taught and reflected in the day-to-day activities of the school. The school has been teaching and serving to promote justice, peace, and love, in the community.

The School was established particularly for the School age children who cannot walk 2-3 hours every day to Sebeya for schooling. Children attend school regularly because of the nearness of the school to their village. All the school children are from poor families. There is potable water near the school
