Title of Best Practice 1 : Sensitizing Students towards Social Responsibilities
Focus on: Social Responsibility
Objective of the practice: The goal of this mission is to make our students morally upright and
socially responsible citizens. More specifically following are the objectives:
*
To make them sensitive towards society.
*
To foster an environment that is conducive for the pursuit of betterment of society.
*
To prepare and train students in a manner which converts them into a force, which is against
evil practices of society.
The Context: The institution believes that no education is complete if it does not focus on making
students socially responsible. They are encouraged to contribute generously towards society by
sharing with the deprived ones, by educating their maids and their children, by keeping environment
clean, by planting trees, by not littering and by maintaining habits of cleanliness.
The Practice : It focuses on transforming our students into upstanding citizens by generating
awareness among them about various problems imbued in our social structure. It engages students in
meaningful practices that prepare them to fulfill the obligations as responsible glocal citizens.

An oath in which every student takes pledge to respect their parents is administered by the
Principal at the onset of every session
*
Event of Spreading Happiness in which students present gifts and share eatables and fruits
