NVS is a unique and vibrant organization that strives for excellence in all the domains of education i.e. cognitive, affective and psychomotor. It provides the necessary ambience for freedom to think, freedom to act and freedom to experiment. It maintains a judicious balance between academics and education, creativity and conformity, tradition and modernity and unity and diversity. It is growing at a steady pace and is accessible and affordable to diverse sections of our society.

Knowledge is universally recognized as the true strength of a nation and Navodaya, the instruments for the social resurgence and reconstruction, are doing an excellent job while pursuing excellence and setting the pace in the field of school education. The world is changing; expectations and aspirations are changing. We have to respond to the expectations and aspirations of the times without diluting the basic objectives for which NVS have been established. The success of the organization is determined by the quality and commitment of its people, and name and fame of the organization is sustained by its readiness for adaptability, vitality and vision for the future. We have dedicated and committed teachers who need to prepare children for life in the new world order that is characterized by powerful forces of globalization.

I am fortunate enough to have an experienced and committed team and intend to build on this strong foundation. It will be possible only if we all take a resolution in the New Year to rededicate ourselves to the realization of vision, mission and objectives of NVS with unflagging zeal.
