The Academic Council of Matriculation Schools, Coimbatore had organised an award function at Alvernia Matriculation Higher Secondary School campus. Every year awards are conferred to the students who have secured state and district level ranks in the tenth and twelfth standard public examinations along with their teachers and principals.

At this function, teachers who have been awarded the Radhakrishnan Award were also felicitated in this function. Director of Matriculation Schools Dr. A. Karuppasamy presented the awards to the winners and congratulated them for their achievements. Dr. N. Arulmurugan, Chief Educational Officer was the guest of honour, R. Vanaja, Inspector of the Matriculation schools presided over the function. K. Thenmozhi, District Education officer, Coimbatore and A. Nasarudeen, District Education Officer Pollachi attended the felicitation function as special invitees.

Chief Guest Dr. A. Karuppasamy in his special address “Students must strictly avoid mugging up the subjects, instead should thoroughly understand the concept of the subjects dealt with and develop their knowledge. Mere passing in matriculation and higher secondary exams is not enough, students must aim in passing with high scores to pursue higher studies of their choice. This will ensure that they get enrolled in a reputed college to pursue their higher education.

Also, when students do well, the teachers and the respective school must also be brought to limelight and appreciated. In this function, it is heart-warming that teachers too are being felicitated. I am happy to be a part of this programme. This effort of formally felicitating the teachers should continue every academic year.”
