FROM THE PRINCIPAL'S DESK

Education is an endless journey through knowledge and enlightenment.  Such a journey opens up new vistas of development, where there is neither scope nor room for pettiness, disharmony, jealousy, hatred or enmity.  It transforms a human being into a wholesome whole, a noble soul and an asset to the universe.  Universal brotherhood in its true sense becomes the sheet anchor for such education.  Real education enhances the dignity of a human being and increases his self-respect.  Each one of us here, at Dagshai realizes the real sense of education and shall carry it forward in every field of human activity in our humble effort of nation-building, thereby making the world a better place to live in.   

Unfortunately today life is a complicated business with radical changes in all spheres of the world.  It is indeed not easy for students to discover their true potential and excel in their careers.   They need an ideal atmosphere to develop their personality and potential.  For this, A.P.S. Dagshai with its idyllic setting provides an excellent atmosphere that satisfies a crucial need in today’s world for students to be able to learn, observe, introspect and contemplate in a most desirable environment.  The school ensures all round development of the personality of the students. 

Wordsworth, Coleridge, Keats and Shelly were all greatly attracted and inspired by the beauty of Nature.  Nature not only moulds and shapes our physical appearances but also forms and ennobles our moral and spiritual character.  The following lines composed by William Wordsworth a few miles above Tintern Abbey express this vividly.
Therefore I am still 
A lover of the meadows and the woods, 
And mountains and of all that we behold. 

There is no denying the fact – Value inculcation and development are issues, which no system of education can afford to ignore at this juncture of human history. 

We cannot continue to educate children today,

Educators today should keep pace with the developments in the field of education – the world over, latest being, Life Skills, while keeping track of the age old concepts of Scientific Attitude and Emotional Intelligence.  Education remains the most important element for growth and prosperity of a nation.  The need of the hour is to have teachers who promote confidence, intellectual development and emotional empowerment of children.   This is what we strive for day in, day out. 

To conclude, there is so much that is received in the portals of this beautiful temple of learning that it is not humanly possible to comprehend its extent - in full measure.
