Principal's Message

Message

In the ancient Indian education system, students were taught to grow by pursuing the realization of the four ends of life: dharma (righteousness), artha (material well-being), kama (enjoyment), and moksha (liberation from worldly ties). There was a strong guru-shishya bond, and the shishyas were treated as a part of the guru’s family. As we stand in the commercialized education system of the 21st century, the symbiotic relationship between a student and a teacher increasingly appears extinct. A teacher or a guru is not held with the reverence that he/she rightly deserves. A student has so many platforms to choose from for studying and pursuing extracurricular activities that they can become overwhelmed.

However vast the amount of information available to us at the click of a button may be, the values and skills that drive excellence in an individual remain the same. Some key traits for success in any field are developing focus towards one’s goals, following discipline, and putting in consistent effort. We at The Modern International School believe in providing holistic education that develops these traits and strives for the overall development of our students.

School is the right place for students to discover what the great purpose of their lives should be. They have ample time to work towards it while having fun along the way. Modern’s academic curriculum empowers students to make decisive career choices while simultaneously developing an interest in cultural, sports, and other extracurricular activities. Such events help students understand their likes and dislikes, as well as discover their innate talents in the long run.

Timely academic assessments, coupled with extracurricular activities, provide great exposure to students. I encourage all students to explore their potential in various fields by actively participating in events and seeking guidance from the wonderful mentors we have on board. All the very best!
