Recognized as a model community school, the school has achieved numerous milestones like hosting the region’s first SLC examination center, pioneering vocational agricultural education, and being recently shortlisted as a Nepal Model School for its commitment to quality and innovation.
Surrounded by the tranquil beauty of the Kali Gandaki River and located near Bejhad Bazaar, the school’s serene setting provides an ideal environment for academic excellence and personal growth.
