Every nation has started taking steps to overcome the spread of the virus and also started closing down the schools and public amusement parks and theatres in order to avoid the crowd so as to control the spread of the virus Corona 19.
Owing to Covid-19 the Tamilnadu government has announced to close down the schools indefinitely. Hence we have closed the schools from 13th March 2019. Giving a break of one month, from 25th April we have started off line classes from X to XII in order to engage our students to continue their education without a long break. The teachers took keen interest to prepare lessons and posted to the students through Whatsapp group and got the home work through the same app.

The director took classes to all the teachers to handle the Google Meet and Google Class Room. The teachers took two hours per day to all the students and posted the same in the Google Class Room. They posted other materials in the Google Class Room to enable all the students to follow the lessons and also they periodically evaluated through the same app and scored the students.
