Chennai: In all, 123 of 124 students at the Sevalaya campus at Kasuva, near Thiruninravur, successfully cleared the plus-2 exams with excellent marks. 82% of the students secured first division marks and 20% of these students scored more than 80%.
Many of these students live in small single room houses with no special facilities for studying. These children also have to help out their parents, who mostly work as daily wage earners and struggle to keep the family afloat.
The credit for this achievement definitely goes to the unstinted support of well wishers, philanthropists and corporates who have always stood by Sevalaya.
The teachers of Sevalaya spare no efforts to coach the students. The school has been functioning with the support of public and corporate for the past 30 years, without any government grant. We dedicate this success to the donors who have extended their unstinting support in our journey, said a press release from Sevalaya.
