- Oak_Grove_School_(Jharipani,_Mussoorie) abstract "RANK IN UTTARAKHAND:-3rd in C.B.S.E Schools of UttarakhandSCHOOL MOTTOThe School Motto is enshrined in the famous shloka from MUNDOKOUPANISHAD . Take us O' Lord from Darkness to Enlightenment. Oak Grove strongly believes that school is the institution where the darkness of illiteracy, unawareness and conservatism are banished and then dawns wisdom, knowledge and creativity on the impressionable minds of young children, on whose shoulders lie the responsibilities of the future.Oak Grove School is a residential public school, owned and run by the Northern Railway. It is situated on hill tops covering 256 acres (1.04 km2) in Jharipani, Mussoorie, India.The school was started by the British Raj on June 1, 1888. The students predominantly consist of the children of Indian Railways employees; 25% of seats are reserved for outsiders. At present there are more than 600 students.[citation needed] The school consists of three semi-independent parts — Oak Grove Boys' School (commenced 1888), Oak Grove Girls' School (1890s) and Oak Grove Junior School (1912). The buildings were designed by the chief engineer of EIR Mr. Richard Roskell Bayne and are built in Gothic style of architecture. The school has been nominated for World Heritage Status by the Government of India.HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVE - The LegacyOak Grove School was the product of coming together of three of the greatest gifts of Nineteenth century - Indian Railways, Hill Station and Public School Culture -all blending harmoniously in this institution. The first Railway hill school was started in 1870s by SP&D Railway later known as North Western Railway at a Bungalow called FAIRLAWN close to the land where Oak Grove is presently situated. It was part of the 'Rajah's Palace' which belonged to the Royal family of Nepal. The ruins of the Palace are still present and part of the estate has been developed for residential purpose.Oak Grove school was started in 1888 by East India Railway Company with an endowment fund of Rs 2 lac on the recommendations of the School Committee. In the 19th century Companies and Industrial concerns were mainly driven by profit motive and rarely invested in areas of social concern like Educational institutions, which was mainly left to Religious and Philanthropic Institutions. It was therefore quite creditable on the part of EIR to start an institution like Oak Grove, way back in the 1880's.The proposal soon took concrete shape and the school started functioning from 1st of June 1888. The Fairlawn school was merged to Oak Grove in 1894 as it could not survive the birth pangs like shortage of staff and accommodation.The first School building, the present Boys school was designed by Mr. R. Roskell Bayne , the Company's Chief Architect and built under the supervision of Mr. W. Drysdale the Company's Engineer. Earliest recorded history of the school mentions the arrival of Matron and Sergant Mrs. and Mr. Green on 9th May 1988 as the first official of the school followed by Head teachers Mrs. and Mr. A. C. Chapman on 19th May, who steered the school through its initial teething problems and set it on the path of stable growth over the period of 24 years, which they spent here.Important dates in the history of Oak Grove School 01/06/1888 - 28 boys arrive. 23/11/1888 - Building taken over from Distt Engineer Drysdale. 09/08/1889 - Rash Behari Ghosh, native doctor arrived at Rs 50 mensem, quarter, fuel etc to work as clerk also. 02/06/1890 - Formation of Cadet Company including 12 boys from Fairlawn. 07/08/1891 - Munshi appointed to teach Urdu as second language. 11/09/1891 - Latin started for class VI to VII. 16/10/1891 - Secy to Agent and Chief Engineer during their visit decided to open an infirmary.MISSION STATEMENTAs part of the wide spectrum of welfare activities of Indian Railways, Oak Grove School aims at providing quality, modern education - as obtainable in English Medium Public Schools - to the wards of railway employees at a highly affordable cost. The school has successfully adapted to the changing times and lays great emphasis on imbibing the values of Indian culture amongst students. The school aims at achieving the highest standard of excellence in academics, sports and co-curricular activities, as found in the best Public Schools so as to turn out men and women of quality who would do the Railways and society at large, proud of them.
