Coordinator Message
“Teachers can open the doors but you must enter by yourself…”
At Shri Kalidas Education Society we believe that ‘children must be taught how to think, not what to think.’ SKES provides an inclusive environment where students are encouraged to put their best foot forward to achieve academic, sporting and social excellence. Students are provided with platforms in the form of various inter class, inter house and inter school competitions where not only the inborn talents of the child is polished to shine but also builds confidence and help enhance their personality. The potential of the students are channelized by teachers with a holistic student centred approach.
Our vision at Shri Kalidas education society, Badami express to achieve highest standards in education by empowering our students to be self-directed life-long learners who visualize problems and situations from a different perspective, be astounding decision makers and find novel communicating with an impactful expression; overall leading to responsible, caring, compassionate and contributing citizens working towards the progress, prosperity and peace of the society at large.
I am happy for writing this message and I am proud of my Institute for providing us conductive work environment, infrastructure, use modern technology and freedom to experiment.
Your grades and degrees don’t reflect your true education. True education reveals self-potential, more than just sows ideas. In school we learn to think alike, but true education is to learn how to think differently. A true education prepares you not only for living but also for life.
I would like to close with the words of Malcolm X “Education is our passport to the future, for tomorrow belongs only to the people who prepare for it today.”
