Coming under the heels of one of their best board exam results in the recently held All India Senior Secondary Certificate Examination (AISSCE), 2022 for class XII students, Delhi Public School (DPS), Dimapur organised a felicitation programme for the achievers at the school premises on August 4.
A total of 49 students from the arts, science and commerce streams had scored an aggregate percentage of above 85% in the examination.
Dr Aotoshi, Pro Vice Chairman, DPS Dimapur speaking during the occasion observed that this year's accomplishment deserves greater appreciation as in spite of the challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic; the students, teachers and staffs of the school have come out on top as exemplified by the results.
He stated that the efficient use of digital technology to carry on with online classes during the lockdowns had prevented the disruption of imparting quality education for the students as well.
