A few of our child Prodigies have taken the name of the school even to the international level in the field of Chess and Karate. The commitment of the dedicated staff of the school in providing quality education to the students forms the core of all our programmes and initiatives. The teachers of the school share an emotional bond with each and every student of the school. We acknowledge the valuable contributions of Administrators / Heads and staff of the yester years, in the march towards enviable progress of the school. The ground we tread and the scepter we wield have been sanctified by their toil and sweat. All of them are remembered with worshipful reverence. There is no doubt that AECS Mysore has crossed many mile stones. But many more remain to be crossed. We aim to march towards greater conquests.
