History

The YMCA Boys' Division was started with two boys in 1937 [1] to serve the student community in around Tirupattur. It was started in a rented building with a hostel for the rural student to stay and a club to develop physical, cultural, religious and educational activities.
In the year 1963 an orphanage was started to cater to the needs of semi-orphaned and destitute boys. Until 1987, there was no nursery school or a primary school available in Tirupattur with affordable fee structure for the middle and the lower income groups of the local population. Therefore, it was decided to start a school in memory of Frank C Brown, [2] the founder of YMCA Boys' Division. [3]

Status

The School enjoys the recognition of the Government of Tamil Nadu [3] and is also affiliated to the Board of Matriculation Schools of the Government of Tamil Nadu. The School was upgraded into a higher secondary school from the academic year 1994–1995. [3] The school is co-educational and the medium of instruction is English. [3]
