I take great pride in presenting an innovative institution that has nurtured in the shade of Dombivli Shikshan Prasarak Mandal and imbibes the moral values in this modern era. An initiative taken 45 years ago by Dombivli Shikshan Prasarak Mandal has fructified in the form of Sister Nivedita School and has reached its full potential by the support and efforts of The Management. Being one of the best schools in Dombivli East, It is also a result of the support, Co-operation, encouragement and guidance of our parents, staff and well wishers.
