History
Howard High School was established as a mission school in 1923 by the Salvation Army Church together with Howard Hospital, which is adjacent to it and with which it has shared a perimeter wall for most of its history. The school offers academic and spiritual guidance to both boys and girls from all over Zimbabwe.
General Eva Burrows was appointed as an officer teacher to the Howard Institute in 1952 to 1967. In 1986, at 56, General Burrows became the organization’s youngest commander, the world leader of the Salvation Army Church (the second woman in that position).
