Innovations and experimentation with new situations have taken this institution to such heights that it has become a pace setter. Quality is not a mere profession but an obsession with us. Excellence is a continuous process with us. It is a place where all children grow, not just in size, not only in knowledge but in curiosity, courage, confidence, independence, resourcefulness, resilience, patience, competence and understanding. The vast campus of KHMS branches out at several places in Ashok Vihar dividing itself into the Senior, Primary, Nursery, Day-Boarding, Kulachi Manovikas Kendra, (a special School for mentally and physically handicapped children) Dayanand Adult Education Centre for illiterate women of the neighbouring area, Bal Saksharta Kendra for the poor children of J.J.

A young child is like a tender growing bud. He needs all the support - moral, emotional, educational to grow and blossom into a complete vibrant personality. Kulachi Hansraj Model School views its role as a vital & solid foundation that would act a sustaining force for the younger generation not only for today or tomorrow but for all times to come.
