There is no substitute to hard work, you must have heard but hard work accompanied by smart work is the key to excellence Formal education of a person begins in the school, and it is very truly said that school is a building that has four walls with the tomorrow inside. Let us not teach our children what to learn, but teach them how to learn what they wish to learn. It has been a constant endeavor at GS INDIA DEFENCE ACADEMY, Dehradun to provide its students with a wide variety of exposure outside the four walls of the classroom.Our students are provided with special opportunities that they need to hone their skills and abilities. it my responsibility to continue with the excellent culture of this Academy. Students are today enlightened and focused. They know what they are up to. They need just a ray of guidance. I feel I have accomplished the reason of my existence on this earth. Proud to be that faint ray of guidance, proud to be a reason of smile on certain lips, proud to be your teacher, friend and guide. In the times that we live in, where morals and values are fast degenerating, schools have an important role as beacons of society where the young minds are groomed with love and care so that they contribute in the progress of our country in the times to come. Apart from striving for advancement in academic achievements, GS INDIA DEFENCE ACADEMY also nurtures its students with good and proper attitudes and values. There can be nothing nobler and more sublime to nurture these saplings.So, let’s join hands to shape the aspirations and visions of our students for their better tomorrow.
