About the school: St. Mary’s High School is a co – education English Medium School established in 1995 recognised by the Govt of Telangana. The school has been dedicated to educational excellence and to the success of every child for three decades.
We strongly believe that today’s existing corporate system is really over burdening the students and not giving enough chances to exhibit their talents. We really work in the direction not to burden the student with emotional pressures, corporal punishments, exhaustive physical strain and other sorts of negative resorts but still produce very good results. We strongly believe in an education which is person oriented, social, professional and result oriented. We work in a creative endeavour and not the monotonous exercise of repetitive processes in a pleasant atmosphere.

Are detailed lesson plans expected?
Most schools expect weekly lesson plans submitted to the coordinator/HOD, plus unit plans at the start of each term. Templates are usually provided.
What kind of professional development is offered?
Most schools run weekly/monthly in-house PD sessions on pedagogy and assessment. Funded external workshops (board-specific or subject-specific) are offered to teachers in good standing.
Are meals provided at school?
Subsidised tea/snacks are common; full meals depend on the school. Boarding schools usually provide meals as part of the package for resident staff.
