About the school: The school has come out as an excellent blend of ancient values and modern systems of education. The best of the Indian tradition as well as the best in modern sciences and technology are amalgamated to provide essential nourishment to the students for their all round development. The first DAV school was started after the demise of Swami Dayanand to serve as his memorial. A group of enlightened, dedicated and devoted followers, with a deep sense of social commitment founded the Dayananand Anglo-Vedic College Trust and Managing Society which was registered in 1886. The society established its first school at Lahore the same year, with Lala Hansraj (later known as Mahatma Hansraj) as the honorary Headmaster. Thus started the movement which has been running from Kashmir to Kanyakumari since then. This school is proud to be a part of this movement which undertakes a vast chain of 800 institutions run by DAV CMC, the largest non-governmental educational organization in the country.
