Kshatriya Vidhyasala English Medium School
We delight in the beauty of the butterfly, but rarely admit the changes it has gone through to achieve that beauty. It is the changes that we all go through our lives that constantly improve us, and with these words, I would like to wish you all a very pleasant evening.
On behalf of the management, staff and students of KVS English Medium school, I cordially welcome our Chief Guest, the other invited dignitaries and all parents to this occasion that is our School’s Annual Function.
We at EMS believe that every individual has a lot of potential, and that potential can help accomplish wonders. That is why, it is fair to say that the future of the world starts here. The session of 2018-19 was a great year. There have been many changes at the school this year, in terms of high expectations, communication, behavioral management, professional development, technology, and above all, academics and I consider it a moment of pride to showcase to you all the achievements and development that the school, staff and students undertook.
Vision determines directions of effort and prioritizing deployment of resources at our disposal, and our vision is to make our school one of the best schools of our country by providing 360 degree education to our students through best in class academic facilities and churn out citizens who are inspiring leaders with a humane touch.
A heart filled with aspirations is all that we knew since the very existence of the school and that’s what gives us the ambition of marching towards achieving a strength of 1383 students from 712 in the year of origin. We are really proud to say that the hardwork of the Principal and her 88 staff team have brought 256 new enrolments this year.
The scholastic performance of an institution is the benchmark used for gauging its excellence in academics.
Yes, EMS dreamt of the success of the class X and XII board examination, they wished for it and at last they did it.
The results of the AISSE for the year 2018-19 of our school discloses the stunning feat of our school students. The bonafide work of the class X and XII students and the uphill battle of our committed staff brought laurels to the school. It is a jubilant moment for me to share the creditable accomplishment of the students.
The pass percentage of Class X and XII is 100% this year also.
Out of the 122 students appeared 33 students recorded marks above 450 and 43 students from 400 to 450.Master P.Gokul stands as the school topper with a total of 490 marks followed by A.U.Rishidharan with 483 marks and M. Anbuvel with 482 marks.
Master P.Gokul recorded centum marks in Maths and Science and Master B.Sree Nilan achieved centum marks in Maths.
38 students appeared for the examination and out of it 7 students came out in flying colours by scoring above 450 and 11 students registered marks between 400 and 450.
Master K.Vishnu Raam is the school topper with 477 marks. Master S. Bavithra Ganesh scored 476 marks and M. Saravanan scored 472 marks.
I take pride to mention that our first batch of students proved their mettle by getting placed in prestigious institutions for their higher studies. The placement of students in reputed institutions decides the trademark of an institution and in this case I feel that EMS has achieved its goal.
It is an astounded victory for the school because out of the 38 children attending the examination 19 students were placed in esteemed institutions through councelling.
I am also glad to inform you all that K. VishnuRaam is placed in Trichy Medical College, M. Saravanan in Tirunelveli Medical College and T. Sharon Paul has entered Madras Veterinary College.
All these would not have been feasible without the backing of our principal and teachers.

Master P.Gokul recorded centum marks in Maths and Science and Master B.Sree Nilan achieved centum marks in Maths.
In this endeavour, we have introduced a few infrastructural and other developments:
As a new undertaking we took a giant leap by laying the foundation for a humongous auditorium cum indoor stadium with four entrances. This would serve as one of the most useful building for the school. This will be the awe-inspiring part of the school as it would include galleries that could accommodate 2000 people at a time, an elevator to reduce the burden of the children and dressing rooms to save pace.
Renovation work and fixing of tiles on walls and floor have been successfully completed for the ground floor.
To keep in pace with the steady increase in the strength of students separate urinals have been built for the kids of the school.
The conference hall in the first floor of the senior block has been given a majestic touch by interior works.
Keeping ourselves up with the stride of the modern world, digitization of the school was ventured by the addition of 2 televisions and CCTV cameras.
In order to ease the work of the office assistants and also the teachers, a xerox machine worth Rs. 1,29,000 has been purchased.
Hands on experience and learning practically will bring in better understanding of the concepts. So every year the requirements of the labs will be satisfied. This year too laboratory specimens, chemicals, apparatus and instruments were shopped for Rs. 2,23,885.

Assemblies are the essential part of schools, for they not only promote a sense of collective belonging to the school but they also educate the students in various ways. Best Assembly Trophies were awarded to the winning classes, along with the Best Class Awards.
Cleanliness and Discipline are the two eyes of a student. This could be inculcated only at the school level by the teachers. So, the awards like Dutiful Disciplinarians and Classroom caretakers are given to the best classes and the Ultimate Contributor award has been announced for the teacher who is unique in motivating the children in these aspects.
“The most successful event is the one that achieves your goals and exceeds your expectations”
