About Us
With the blessings of the Maha Swamigal – Pujyasri Sri Chandrasekarendra Saraswathi of the holy Sri Kanchi Mutt, intiative was taken by His Holiness Sri Sri Jayendra Saraswathi Swamigal, laid the foundation for this school way back on 24.01.1988 in offering quality education at an affordable fees to the lower and middle class today. The beginning of our school was made in a small room in the house of Pandit Shri sethurama Chettiar, at the junction of Mahatma Gandhi Road and Rangapillai street. It was only in 1990 that the school was started in a separate building, the present Mahatma Gandhi Road Campus which was donated by the family of Pandit Shri Seetharama Chettiar. The school was started with just 24 students. The school has an annex building at Ranga Pillai street which is housing Nursery Section.
From a Primary school in 1990, we grew as Middle School in 2012, as a High School in 2014 and as Higher Secondary School in 2015. There is a divine significance attached to our school. The school is situated in “SANKARARKULAM’

Keeping up with tradition, all the festival days are celebrated in the school to make the children understand our culture. We equally strive to give importance to co-curricular activities, of course, with a touch of patriotic and spiritual values.
