There can be no question about the fact that education is the cornerstone of human development, the strongest pillar to ensure the survival of our planet. As a lifelong teacher and an educationist, I have witnessed the marvel of a young mind absorbing a new idea, grasping a new concept or solving a problem. Our alumni have been climbing many, many ladders of success in diverse fields all over the world and I have no doubt that the list will grow longer and more illustrious in the years to come.
The reason for this is not far to seek. In our School, we strive to create an optimum blend of academics, sports, extra-curricular activities, personality building, life skills, creativity, analytical thinking and more. All along, we inculcate the finest human and social values in each student, teaching them not just right from wrong, but how to stay on the path of virtue and integrity. We teach the importance of compassion, inclusion and generosity. We help them understand their duties and responsibilities as a citizen and a nation-builder.
The School’s founder Mr. Fateh Singh Rathore, envisioned it to be an institution that would attract students and teachers from all sections of society and be completely secular. The only factors that matter are merit and the willingness to learn. The new boarding environment encourages a strong sense of community and helps to develop friendships that will be sustained – and be sustaining – in life beyond the School. The residential areas and Central Dining Hall keep the boys safe, comfortable and healthy – physically, intellectually and emotionally.
Growing up in School teaches the students discipline, self- reliance and independence. They learn to adapt to any situation they may face in life and understand how to assess the personalities and capabilities of others around them. These are invaluable lessons that stand them in good stead all through their lives.
The environment of the school is awe-inspiring. Spread over 3 verdant acres, the School is an oasis of architectural beauty and wide open spaces. Visitors say there is a sense of great optimism for the future. The facilities range from the Library and Robotics, Music and much more. The sports facilities are extensive. Our teaching faculty brings an enviable level of qualifications, experience and commitment. They play the roles of teacher, mentor, counsellor, guide and cheer leader with consummate skill. For them, teaching is not a job, but a calling, in which they grow and evolve to become better every day.
Ask any of our old children and each will have a host of happy memories of their years in School and how their bonds of friendship have strengthened over the decades. Most of them credit the School for their success in life and look back at their alma mater with love and gratitude.
