“The highest education is that which does not merely give us information but makes our life in harmony with all existence.”
Rabindranath Tagore

Dear Parents and Students
Welcome to DPS Vidyut Nagar, where for over 35 years, we've been shaping students with compassion and empathy under our guiding principle of 'Service Before Self.' Our vision extends beyond traditional academics to create an environment where:

  • Students engage in innovative programs like 'Beyond Likes' workshops on social media awareness, The Standard Club for consumer rights, and dedicated meditation sessions for holistic well-being
  • Cultural heritage flourishes through Hindi Diwas, Mango Festival, and Salaam-e-Hunar activities
  • Parent partnerships thrive through programs like 'My Inspiration' and expert-led parenting workshops
  • Physical and mental wellness is prioritized through our 'Rejuven8' initiative and yoga sessions.

As Principal, I am committed to developing an environment where students don't just learn - they evolve into creative, innovative, and empathetic individuals.

Our strength lies in the synergy between home and school, creating a powerful support system for your child's growth.

Together, let's paint a canvas of possibilities and prepare our children for a future beyond the classroom.


Warm regards,
Poonam Dua
Principal DPS Vidyut Nagar
