A Tribute To GR

Late Sri G. Ramachandran, was the mainstay of the entire activities of the Dayananda Society. GR as he was popularly known, brought the school to the notice of the outside world through his single minded devotion and commitment. Discipline was a priority issue for Mr. GR and continues to be so today. Through his efforts over the year, he has moulded the children into responsible citizens.
