“If you want to touch the past, touch a rock. If you want to touch the present, touch a flower. If you want to touch the future, touch a child.”
When I think of education I think of Lord Buddha, Lord Krishna and Swami Vivekananda. Then, when I think of the power of education, I think of late A.P.J Abdul Kalam, Michelle Obama and Malala Yousafzai. Our culture is embedded with thousands of examples of good and wholesome education leading to a victorious end.
I am ecstatic and proud of our first ISC batch results. Out of 90 students, who appeared for their ISC Board Examinations, 24 students scored 90% and above. Arpit Goyal, a brilliant student, scored 97.4%, the highest in the Campus. The ICSE result brought with it well deserved celebrations as it showed an increment in the percentage of students scoring 90% and above. This year out of 132 students, who appeared for the examination, 56 students secured 90% and above. Kudos to our teachers, students and most importantly parents who have equally co-operated with us to make our Board Examinations result a success story.
Our faculty and students work on International Environment Olympiad projects to create an awareness towards environmental issues. The Junior Youth Empowerment Programme running in our school empowers our young students by helping them to contribute to society through service. All sections of students carry out service projects like Soles for Souls and visiting Old age homes, Orphanages, etc.
I fall short of words to express my gratitude when I think of Ma’am Batra. Her stellar guidance and support is shaping CMS Gomti Nagar II to be the branch it has become. I feel privileged to be on the receiving end of immense love, encouragement and motivation bestowed by our Founder Manager, Dr Jagdish Gandhi and Founder Director, Dr Bharti Gandhi. I also acknowledge and thank from the bottom of my heart President, Prof Geeta Gandhi Kingdon, Director of Strategy, Mr Roshan Gandhi Forouhi and Superior Principal & Head, QAID Mrs Susmita Basu, for their untiring support and innovation in making the CMS family abreast with the ever changing times.
