    The school's first Ordinary Level candidate sits the examination and earns straight A grades in all seven subjects.

  3. A Level classes begin

    Chairman Mr A. Mannan Khan introduces A Level. The school now teaches from Playgroup to A Level.

  4. The school's own buses

    The school begins to run its own bus service.

  6. The move to Bashundhara

    Under Principal Mrs Sorabon Tohura, the school moves into its own building of ten storeys in Bashundhara Residential Area. The architect is Mr Ehsan Khan.
