The Growth

Dr Rathore went door to door for getting his first group of students. First, people had no motivation for education as such. Second, people didn’t trust a successful person coming from his calm, peacefully and luxurious life and working day and night for setting up a school and then charging a fee as low as Rs. 50 a month. He recalls comments of one parent: “It is good to meet you, but what will happen if you run away and your school is closed down, we will wait for 5 - 7 years, if you stay then only we will be able to trust you and the school.” But now it is a success story. Dr Rathore recalls plenty of complements that he receives for his school.

A number of colleagues helped the founder in getting some projects. One of the colleagues provided him with a UNICEF project, which was undertaken at the school level. Thus a start was made in right direction with blessings and support of friends and family along with parents of some of the students. 

Mr. Kan Singh (an Ex - Army Officer and a person who himself is running a good school) told after visiting the school, “I would like to get my own children admitted in this school rather than in my own school”.
The founder got support from his friends, colleagues and well-wishers in this noble cause.

• A Soil conservationist who visited the school as chief guest announced that he would like to give honorary services to this school and is very much interested in this school. He promised to devote every day 2 hours to the school.
• His colleague Mr. M.R. Khatri (a well-known professor of English language) used to come in the evening to motivate the students. 
• Dr. T. K. Jain, another colleague and friend of his developed a case study on the school and presented it at IIMA. 
• One of the students of the founder Mr. Sandeep Papriwal came to see the school and was extremely impressed by the school and donated Rs. 21000 for the school. 
• An NRI who saw the school and its social commitments decided to donate Rs. 1 lac for the development of the school.

Everyone who saw his efforts, appreciated it and wanted to help him. Noble cause and team work always gives the reward. The school had started with only 7 students and by the year end (1st year), the school was able to have a strength of 35 students. Today it has 600 students. It is not just a quantitative growth, it is fundamentally a quality oriented school and is constantly receiving complements from people for its quality. Parent of a girl child came and said: “I have now realized that this is how a school should be run and this is how the school can help the society”
