The Leadership Quotient:
Teachers are always on the lookout for students who can be guided to step into leadership
roles. At the investiture ceremony these students are then selected as Head Boy,
Head Girl, House Captains and Monitors. These students gain confidence since they
serve as a link between the school authorities and the school body.
Facilities- Equipping young people for life:
Our new school building has spacious & colourful classrooms.
The school has a large multipurpose hall, a uniform store, an indoor play area for
KG students, a library, an audio visual room and a hygienic canteen. A
huge canopy

committed to their profession. Skill, aptitude, knowledge, caring and enthusiasm
