KOZHIKODE: Students and academics of Rajiv Gandhi Memorial Residential Higher Secondary School (RGMRHSS) at Noolpuzha in Wayanad are on cloud 9. For the primary time within the faculty’s 30-year historical past, a scholar has cleared the SSLC examination with A plus in all topics.

Amalraj P from the tribal-only faculty has achieved the feat. He hails from the Kattunayka neighborhood which falls below the Particularly Vulnerable Tribal Groups (PVTG). Though the college began in 1991, the primary SSLC batch handed out 20 years in the past.

“Not only that, we secured 100 percent success rate too. All the 35 students who wrote SSLC examination have qualified for higher education. Till now, our top achievement was a student who got an A plus in six subjects. This time, we made a focused effort for better results,” stated headmaster Sunil Kumar M, who joined the college final 12 months on request switch. The faculty has 372 college students in courses 1 to 10 and one other 150 within the increased secondary part.

‘Sreedhanya was my inspiration’

Hailing from Poovanchi colony, Chethalayam close to Sultan Bathery, Amalraj stated he needed to observe within the footsteps of Sreedhanya Suresh, the primary tribal lady from the state who cracked the civil service examination. “The fact that Sreedhanya is from Wayanad was a major booster. Whenever I felt stuck in life, I remembered that she would have faced the same hurdles and overcame them with steely resolve,” he advised TNIE. The son of headload employee Raju V Ok and former native ward member Thankamani Ok B, Amalraj joined the residential faculty at school 1. His elder brother Akhilraj is pursuing a level in sociology.

“Our lives reached nowhere. We don’t want the same to happen to the next generation. Poovanchi colony has four government employees -3 cops and one forest watcher – from Kattunayka community. All of them were absorbed through special recruitment. Let our children raise the bar and reach new heights,” stated Amalraj’s uncle V Chandran.

Among those that cleared the SSLC examination from RGMRHSS is a lone scholar from Cholanayaka neighborhood – Sobha of Parappanpara.
