History

edit

The school was started with just a block accommodating Lower Kindergarten and Upper Kindergarten. The school was a success and soon, the number of students increased dramatically. This demanded a bigger campus which was expanded over the years in line with the increasing population. Presently[when?] it is having L.K.G. to 10th STD,[clarification needed] and is all set to have its block for pre-university college within the campus.

The population of Manki is 11,000, but the people are lagging behind in educational opportunities compared to surrounding places such as Bhatkal, Honnavara, and Murudeshwara. That changed when the school was established.

Present strength

edit

The present strength of the school is around 450 students. Since its establishment, more than 200 have graduated.

Buildings and grounds

edit

The school owns the land for further expansion. It includes a school building of around 8000 sq ft, a playground, a mosque, and a residential building for teachers.
