We all remember that day 10 years ago when we first started. Classrooms partly filled with wailing children, anxious parents and calm teachers. It was then we began our journey long with the toddlers. Many, dreaded school. First we made them love our school. For instance and English lover need not be a mathematics fanatic. Wouldn't it be better to separate the budding Shakespeares and Einsteins Early? Why tax them with social studies when they can run like a gazelle and bring glory to the nation? So the students were given a lot of chances to participate in various cultural activities and athletic events to build their confidence. That was the main goal of KRMMMHSS, to impart a congenial environment to enable the buds to bloom. Our ten years of service in the field of education is the proof that we have succeeded in our goal.
The Cultural feast organized by Vidya Mandir, the drama competition organized by Alliance Francaise , the poetry recitation competition conducted by Vidya Mandir are a few to mention. They brought laurels to the school by their performance.
Our stage adaptation of 'Snow white and the Seven Dwarfs' won a lot of praise and appreciation when it was staged for the School Day 2003-2004.

Oratorical competitions, debates are also part of our curriculum.
Can we really appreciate studying about our environment inside a class room? Field trips and excursions are and integral part of our school. Every year, teachers accompany students to different places and begin to relax as well as learn from the experience.
