Dear Students
The month of March truly meant the season of Spring
for the School! We witnessed the lively ‘red roses’
(students of classes IX to XII) with bags on their
shoulders entering the school gate with bright eyes and
smiling faces, each behind the mask, marching actively
after a quick thermal check and hand sanitization to
reach their allotted classrooms for taking the annual
examination!
It was such a relief to have you all back that brought life
back to the school, and created an air of exuberance
and fulfilment, not only for you but also for your
teachers who have been communicating with you
online during such a long break!

I guess, you too must have realized the importance
of regular schooling and one-to-one interaction. I
am glad that the online examinations for classes
Nursery to VIII, off line examination for classes IX
and XI, and Pre-Board for classes X and XII have
been conducted successfully.
Finally, we have approached the end of a trying
period and are now prepared to welcome the new
academic session.
With all the safety measures that are being strictly
adhered to in the school, I hope you too will
continue to abide by the precautions that need to be
observed for your own protection.
Regarding the schedule for the next session, you
will be kept informed about the guidelines received
from the D’te of Education.
I welcome you all with optimism of better times
ahead!
Wishing you success,
Principal
