It is said that a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. Such was one fine morning in November 2015 that marked the official beginning of St. Mary’s Church, Basavanagar – Kaggadasapura, which in turn gave way to the formation of a School Trust for Christ Public School.St. Mary’s Educational Trust was formed with the intention that one day all children in the area be entitled to a holistic educational opportunity, one that is formed and led by the renowned priests of the CMI, who have already established big institutions such as Christ University.What makes Christ Public School unique is it’s blend of value-based learning and academic excellence, rooted strongly in the belief in integrity. This combination boosts student performance by leveraging creative freedom and curricular development, to prepare every student for life. Rev. Dr. Davis Panadan Director, St. Mary’s Charitable and Educational Trust
