Education aims the rearing up of disciplined, efficient and God fearing citizens. All the above qualities are of paramount importance as far as individual as well as national life is concerned. The need of the hour is to bring up good citizens; who would put others interests before their own interests and would willingly contribute their mite for the well being of the fellow citizens.
It is with these noble ideals in mind that the school was founded in 11th June 1979 by Chevalier T THOMAS, the Founder, to impart quality education to the children of the lower middle class families. Marian Sr. Sec. School is a co-educational English Medium School affiliated to the Central Board of Secondary Education, New Delhi and located in a campus on K.K. Road, Kalathipady, 5 km away from Kottayam town.
The aim of the school is to provide a full liberal and comprehensive education and to impart education through modern training methods which will develop the character and personality of the child. The object is to turn out young men and women with a keen sense of discipline and responsibility, initiative and self-reliance, integrity and loyalty to the nation.
Our motto as depicted in our school emblem is SM -> ST. MARY – ADORNED BY THE CROWN with the wording DOMINIE ILLUMINA ME – ‘God enlighten me’. The crown represents success in the fulfillment of imparting best education.
