Aided Vidyadayinee High School was established in Surathkal with a view to the educational development of surrounding Children. This High school was started in April 1944 with the Motto “Vidya Para Devatha” and the blessings of the Late Sri Sri Vidyaratnathirtha Sripada Mathadheesha of Krishnapura Matha.
In the beginning, as per the rules of the Madras Government, the classes were started from Ist Form to IIIrd Form with 180 students and 8 faculty. Thereafter in the year 1960, the 8th standard was started followed by the 8th standard in English medium in the year 1963.
At present, the school has classes from 8th Standard to 10th Standard both in English Medium and Kannada Medium with 150 plus enrolment and around 300 students in English Medium. It has well-equipped facilities for learning with efficient and qualified teachers.
With the support of the members of the esteemed Hindu Vidyadayinee Sangha, the old Students Association, and the Philanthropic Public, various infrastructures were added and the institution has grown to one of its kind.
