History
The school was founded on March 15, 1965. Following the inauguration
till 1968 it was a junior school. In 1972 the school was converted into a
High School. The students from the school participated in Secondary
School Certificate Examination (O-level equivalent) for the first time
in 1973.
During the first 25 years the school kept its growth as a high school
only (10 years of formal education). Following the demand and the
requests from the guardians a college (11th and 12th year of formal
education) for the female students was added in 1991.
To make room for more students the administration opened a new branch
on the occasion of the 30th anniversary in 1996. That branch started
its activities at Rampura with 702 students. Mr. Faizur Rahman is the
founder-headmaster of the institution.
