umaon Public School (KPS) is a CBSE affiliated, co-ed English medium senior secondary school located on NH 87 E at Malli Mirai, Tehsil Dwarahat, about 25 Kms from Ranikhet, Uttarakhand. The school is the brain child of Shri Pooran Singh Rana, its founder, an eminent Educationist from Malli Mirai, with over 40 years of teaching and administrative experience, both in India and abroad. He has served as teaching faculty at Sainik School Chittorgarh, Rajasthan and Sainik School Ghorakhal, Nainital. He was also the Principal of a number of prestigious senior secondary schools located at both Delhi and New Delhi including NDMC Navyug School, Sarojini Nagar, prior to setting up Kumaon Public School. The school is spread over an area of approximately two acres and is located in the midst of the verdant hills of Malli Mirai, surrounded by pine and oak forests, which lend it a natural, peaceful and serene outlook. The campus consists of a three storied main building comprising classrooms, multipurpose hall, library and laboratories; all constructed strictly as per CBSE specifications. In addition, classrooms and laboratories are spread over two double storied buildings adjacent to the main building with the Kindergarten section housed in one of them. A staff room building and conveniences for both boys and girls are also located adjacently. Despite its location deep in the hills, the school premises incorporate a four thousand square meters multipurpose open field which serves as a Volleyball court, Football field and assembly area. In addition, a cemented Basketball court has recently been built. Another unique regional feature of the school is its fleet of five yellow school buses which transport students to and from their villages and towns located within a distance of about twenty kilometers from the school. The school thrives to ‘uplift’ the prevailing education standard of the region and equate it with the best in the country. It is the endeavor of the management, teaching faculty and support staff to equip students with knowledge and skills including exposure to the rich cultural heritage of the country that will mould them into productive human capital, for the future growth of the country. With the untiring efforts of the school team and unflinching support of parents, the school is committed to providing its students an opportunity to excel in academics, sports, extracurricular and co-curricular activities. This will equip students with a solid knowledge base, vibrant dynamism, awareness about the world around them, focused ambition and a sustained commitment towards achievement of goals that they set for themselves in life.
