Always been and will be a proud johnsonite. Not just for the education that this place has given me, but for the kind of personality development that has happened here, the friendships that last for a lifetime, teachers who strive for a bright future of students and the whole positive learning ecosystem this place has to offer.
Being a student at Johnson Grammar School CBSE, I was always bestowed with plenty of opportunities to keep evolving and challenging my skillsets. The school has a great emphasis on the practical application of knowledge and we were always encouraged to apply these competencies through the Math and Science labs. In retrospect, I believe this has given me an advantage in providing a real-world understanding. Whether it be participating in the various Inter-school competitions or the regular teaching sessions, every learning opportunity was interwoven with student led initiative which helped me develop my leadership and communication skills. The school played a huge role in building my personal traits and has made me a much more resilient person. It gave me an opportunity to pursue my further studies at University of Warwick and Imperial College London, by constantly guiding me even as an alumni. The network of students and the community that Johnson Grammar School provides its students is extremely valuable to me.
As one among the first batch in JGS CBSE Nacharam, I would like to express immense gratitude to my Principal, teachers, and all my friends for being part of my most memorable years. There was a perfect balance of education and co-curricular activities which helped us to explore our interests. I always cherish the great opportunities we had in academics as well as in sports, art and literature.
Securing the MBBS degree inspired me to enrich my learning. Currently, I am preparing for my post graduation in medicine. Till today, i always look back and cherish my school days and couldn't be more grateful to my School and teachers for empowering the rich values and skills.

Greatest life lessons are learnt from chaos. Johnson for me is exactly that. Just that the chaos was created by us, unbeknown to anyone but only best known to the first batch of students of SeniorSecondary School.Johnson gave me everlasting memories, helped me discover my passion towards research and turned me into a person that I am. Taught resilience, patience, being conscious about self and others and courage to be just me. Johnson 2014 was my family, quite literally since everyone turned out to be related to one other. I would like to thank Johnson for I met some incredible teachers who mean everything to me and a bunch of friends turned family.
My journey with Johnson Grammar School has been a blend of top notch academics, along with the joy of exploring my interests in several co-curricular activities and valuable life lessons of leadership, integrity and team work.
Forever grateful to the institution, for it's continuous support, guidance and warmth of teachers, and the example set by them, that has made me the confident and compassionate doctor that I am today.
My 6 year journey with JGS CBSE started back in 2008, the year when the school was established. It feels incredible to have been able to be a part of it's journey from the very beginning. I feel grateful for the group of teachers we had , who were few of the greatest friends we made back then. They played a significant role in tuning us and inculcating great deal of values , helping us to grow to what we are today. As quoted by the great RABINDRANATH TAGORE "The highest Education is that which does not merely give us information but makes our life in harmony with all existence." I m glad that our school dint merely educate us but indeed prepared us for the battles of life. Our memories are still fresh out of school where we made friends who are family today, and teachers who will forever hold a special place in our hearts. Johnson will always be cherished as a part of our journey. Thankful and grateful for what we have grown out of this place.

Being part of the first batch of Senior Secondary at Johnson CBSE was both a blessing and a privilege to me. The whole experience of being there was filled with learning something new everyday, gathering immense knowledge and collection of memories that I will cherish for a lifetime. It has always given me great pride and joy for being part of this cohort. With teachers, who have taught, groomed and made us the people we are today. With friends, who have helped us enjoy every moment of adolescence and have become friends for a lifetime. With facilities and management, always putting our best interests at the forefront. I am forever grateful for everything I've experienced at Johnson Grammar School CBSE.

School!! Listening to the word itself -Reminds me of pure happiness and splash of memories treasured in me. JGS has taught me to be confident, vocal and creative. Academically, I can’t imagine of having any other faculty than what we had, to teach and guide us! I feel lucky that our batch had the best of them all! Being a dancer, I always thank my school, where I was always encouraged and appreciated for performing and participating in competitions and school annual days. It made me believe in myself and gave me confidence that I can really do something in it! I’ve been my purest in those years -enjoying, learning, committing mistakes and trying to be a better version. My school gave me the best teachers as mentors, best friends for a lifetime, great teachings to takeaway, best of the best memories and experiences in JGS! Now when I think back to those days I spent in JGS, I just feel like running back in time to live those years all over again! And that’s JGS for me!
It was in the year 2012,I walked into Johnson Grammar School,CBSE campus to find out details about Grade XI admissions. Despite being the first batch of Grade XI, I decided to go with JGS because of its rich legacy. Within the first few months, I was able to adapt to the learner centred, well designed curriculum. Personally, being a student of both Maths and Biology meant striking a balance between two completely different streams and JGS played a pivotal role in helping me find the balance-right from the intensive preparation for entrance tests to making sure of not missing out the essence of Grades XI and XII. At JGS, I got to be a part of various plays,quizzes and even being a part of our school Band.The stage performances,public speaking and writing competitions at JGS enabled me to build confidence and getahead in life. Even after a decade of passing out, I am proud to be in touch with our Director Sir,and my teachers.
I passed out with an MBBS degree from All India Institute of Medical Sciences, Raipur in December 2020, and I am currently pursuing Research in the USA.
Johnson Grammar School is more than just a school; it is also my second family. I am eternally thankful to my teachers, who instilled in me the values and principles I live by. Besides lasting friendships and a happy childhood, this school gave me the best opportunities to grow as a person. Johnson Grammar School has helped me develop the grit and perseverance to tackle challenges and pursue my goals.

About My School -JGS, CBSE.
I can rest my hand over my heart and say only one thing about my school- the mental and professional character I’m presenting today is definitely not just from my parents but from the learning and experience in JGS.
