Principal's Message
Dear Parents and Students,
“ The aim of education is the knowledge, not of facts, but of values.” – William Ralph Inge
At St. Dominic’s School, Mariashram, Badakabail, we believe that education is not merely about academic success, but about shaping character, nurturing values, and empowering young minds to face the future with confidence and compassion.
As Principal, it gives me immense joy to welcome you to a learning community where every child is valued, guided, and inspired. Our school is a place where children walk in with hope and walk out with pride — equipped with knowledge, strong moral values, and a spirit of service.
Backed by a team of committed and well-qualified teachers, modern smart classrooms, upgraded labs and library, rich sports facilities, and a wide range of co-curricular activities, we strive to provide a holistic learning environment that addresses the intellectual, emotional, physical, and spiritual growth of every student. Special care is taken to ensure safety, discipline, healthy midday meals, and secure transport, so that parents can entrust their children to us with complete peace of mind.
Inspired by the values of St. Dominic, we emphasize value-based education, fostering integrity, responsibility, and respect for others. We create a warm and caring atmosphere where words create trust, communication builds connection, and warmth calms anxiety — allowing children to flourish with confidence.
I warmly invite parents and guardians to become partners with us in this noble mission of education. Together, let us guide our children towards a future marked by character, knowledge, and growth.
With every good wish and blessings,
Rev. Fr Francis Arun DSouza O.P.
Principal, St. Dominic’s School, CBSE, Mariashram, Badakabail
