MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIRPERSON
DR. ITIRANI SAMANTA
Education is the guiding light that paves the way for a brighter future, and it is the children of today who inspire us to strive for a better tomorrow. This belief was instilled in me by our mother Smt. Nilimarani Samanta. She recognised that to improve the quality of life in our native village of Kalarabank, we needed to establish better educational facilities. Thus, our founder, Dr. Achyuta Samanta embarked on the mission of constructing a school in our village, transforming it into a smart village with the sole purpose of providing quality education and paving the path for social and economic upliftment.
Hailing from abject poverty, I experienced the limitations of scarce opportunities. However, fueled by an insatiable spirit and an unwavering determination, I managed to overcome these obstacles and reach the position I am in today. It is this journey that ignited my passion to ensure that every child of today receives the opportunities they truly deserve to make a better tomorrow. We could only climb up the socio-economic ladder through education and sheer hard work to succeed.
Hence through Kalinga English Medium School, we are dedicated to providing students with knowledge that goes beyond the confines of textbooks, aiming to offer them an enriching and larger-than-life learning experience. The key to unlocking this extraordinary journey lies in fostering curiosity. The more inquisitive one is, the greater the opportunities for growth and learning become. As an educator, I am committed to nurturing this innate curiosity within each student, encouraging them to embark on a never-ending quest for knowledge and empowering them to reach their full potential.
Witnessing the remarkable success of the Kalinga English Medium School fills me with overwhelming joy. Establishing a school that offers a quality education at the grassroots is no small feat. The realization that our school not only provides education of the highest calibre but also outshines many city and urban-based schools fills me with an immense sense of pride. I extend my heartfelt congratulations to the entire team, as well as my dear brother, Dr. Achyuta Samanta, whose unwavering support has made it possible to offer the present generation the opportunities that were once denied to us in our childhood.
Together, we are shaping a brighter future, one where education knows no boundaries, and every child has the chance to thrive.
FROM THE PRINCIPAL'S DESK
Mr. Biyat Bihari Mishra
"The capacity to learn is a gift, the ability to learn is a skill, and the willingness to learn is progress."
As the Principal of Kalinga English Medium School, it is a tremendous honor to lead an institution that embraces the profound truth embedded in the above statement. Our school is committed to providing high-quality education that not only imparts knowledge but also instills a lifelong love for learning in our students. We firmly believe that education extends beyond the accumulation of facts and figures; it encompasses the holistic development of each individual, catering to their unique needs and aspirations.
To achieve this, we recognize the pivotal role of our dedicated and passionate teachers. We empower them with the necessary tools and resources to enhance their performance, ensuring that every child under their guidance benefits immensely. By nurturing their professional growth, we create an environment where teachers can inspire, motivate, and guide students towards reaching their full potential.

We achieve this by delivering a comprehensive, child-centered, and well-structured curriculum that fosters intellectual, emotional, and social growth. Our focus extends beyond academic success; we prioritize student welfare and celebrate their achievements, creating a positive and nurturing environment for all.

By encouraging creativity, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills, we empower students to become active contributors to society and catalysts for positive change. Our ultimate goal is to create an environment where every student soars with the wings of their imagination.

It is my supreme responsibility to ensure that every student feels enlightened, supported, and valued within our school community. Together, we aim to propel Kalinga English Medium School to the pinnacle of academic excellence, equipping our students with the skills, knowledge, and confidence to navigate the challenges of the future.
