A short profile

Started as a Kindergarten school in the year 1968 in Nanganallur, a suburb on the southern periphery of Madras with 20 students and 4 teachers, Modern Senior Secondary School has blossomed into a senior secondary school with classes from LKG to Standard XII. It was affiliated to Central Board of Secondary Education, New Delhi in the year 1977. The first batch of students (boys and girls) sat for Standard X Board Examination in 1980 and then in 1982 for Standard XII Board Examination. All these years, the School has been blessed with cent percent passes.

The School has a student strength of about 2800 students (boys and girls) at the commencement of the current year 2015-16 and a staff strength of about 120 comprising two Ph.D’s and 7 M.Phil’s besides a number of Post Graduate, Trained Graduate, Primary Grade and Kindergarten teachers with support staff.

The School is showing great importance to Co curricular and extra curricular activities. In particular, the School is giving special coaching in chess to its students, which has paid rich dividends. The School is very proud of one of its alumni, K.Sasikiran, Grand Master and Arjuna Awardee in Chess. Following in his footsteps, the School has a host of eminent chess players.
