Dear Friends,
As the world is gripped in the present crisis and we all are fighting to get over situation, our students did manage to complete their academic year. The XII grade students wrote their Board Exams without any break while X and XI grades will appear later after the school reopens. There is lot of uncertainty but we are happy that our kids are safe and healthy with all your blessing and well wishes.
