The journey of 'Sarada Vidyapith' began on 1 May, 1995. The instituition made its glorious start adopting the ideologies of Swami Vivekananda and was baptized accordingly after the Holy Mother, Ma Sarada Devi's name. The new born instituition was bold enough to set off with only ten students of class V run by the Ashrama Praktan Chhatra Sangha, Narendrapur. My personal as well as official attachment with the Vidyapith dates back to 1998. At that time, the school was just a child of three years. But shortly after, it took to adding one class each year and it took up the mould of a complete Madhyamik Institute in the academic session 2000-2001.
