Mangaluru, Mar 6: St Aloysius Gonzaga CBSE School (SAGS) was established in 2012 under the umbrella of the St Aloysius Institutions, which has a 143-year legacy of providing outstanding education. The school is located in the heart of Mangaluru city and takes pride in becoming one of the most sought-after CBSE schools in the area within just ten years. As a Jesuit educational institution, SAGS is committed to educating young minds and fostering holistic learning, which includes intellectual, social, and ethical values, molding students into responsible global citizens.
SAGS is a co-ed school, offering classes from Pre-KG to Class XII. The rich program of study comprises a wide range of curricular, co-curricular, and extracurricular activities. With Principal Fr Melwyn Anil Lobo, S.J., as its visionary leader and eminent administrator, the school currently has 1397 students under the mentorship of 59 competent teachers. Notably, the Class X students have secured 100% results in the Board Examination year after year, starting from the first batch.
SAGS is inspired and guided by the motto "Lucet et Ardet" (Shine to Enkindle), which aims to shape young minds to live not only for themselves but as agents of social change. The ultimate goal is to help shape students' minds and hearts in human values, instilling in them a habit of reaching out to fellow humans in need and to the global human society. In this process, realizing that "to be fully human is to be fully divine."
The core values of Jesuit education are the 4 Cs: Competence, Conscience, Compassion, and Commitment. These values are instilled in students through a variety of activities, including curricular, co-curricular, and extracurricular. A glance at the SAGS Calendar gives an idea of the array of programs, events, and activities throughout the academic year, including daily assemblies, regular classes, cultural programs, celebration of national and international days, celebration of three main religious festivals, weeklong observance of languages such as English, Hindi, Kannada, and Maths, games, contests, and competitions to engage students in the annual sports meet, annual day, field trips, "Gonzaga-Got-Talent," educational tours, outreach programs, alumni associations, career guidance sessions and workshops, personality development seminars, and counseling sessions. Co-curricular activities include club activities, Bunny Movement, Cubs and Bulbuls, Scouts and Guides, and N.C.C. Extra-curricular activities include Karate, Chess, Skating, Swimming, Instrumental Music, Dance, Arts & Crafts. These activities are designed to provide opportunities for students to pursue their interests, explore broader perspectives, and hone their leadership skills.
Innovative programs like the Go Green Project aim to create awareness of the importance of ecology and sustainability. The Atal Tinkering Lab provides students with hands-on opportunities to fabricate working models. Yoga, sports, games, and athletics help students maintain a healthy mind in a healthy body. Special coaching in public speaking enhances communication and oratory skills.
The impressive edifice, state-of-the-art infrastructure, and world-class facilities are what impress visitors to SAGS. The facilities include spacious classrooms - each provided with an LCD projector and internet facility - a well-equipped computer lab, composite science, and maths lab - all designed according to CBSE norms. The care and guidance of competent teachers play a vital role in sustaining and promoting students' interests in their overall progress.
A unique characteristic of SAGS is its focus on preparing students for life and work in an increasingly interconnected world by providing world-class teaching and learning experiences. The school is registered under the British Council and has been awarded the Council’s International Dimension in the School certification for the third time in succession for bringing internationalism into the curriculum. Additionally, SAGS is part of 'Educate Magis,' a worldwide network of Jesuit schools, connecting with counterparts in different countries.
What sets the school apart in the eyes of parents is the compassionate work culture that provides individual care and concern to each student both in and out of the classroom. The school prioritizes safety and security with CCTV cameras on each floor, and the parental app, designed by the school, enables parents to stay informed about their child's performance, progress, and well-being. The school's fleet of buses connects different areas of the city, and an outsourced lunch facility is also available for those who opt for it.
In summary, SAGS is the ideal choice for students seeking all-around development and not just grades. The school provides a transformative experience that prepares students to face the challenges of the 21st century.
