The Sivakasi Lions Matriculation Hr Sec School,

The industrialists, who sent their wards to far away Public Schools in hill stations like Ooty, Kodaikanal and Yercaud to get English medium education, felt the need of establishing such an English Medium School in Sivakasi itself for the benefit of the children of Sivakasi. The Lions Club of Sivakasi, where the cream of the society meets to serve the society, understood the felt need and decided to start an English Medium School at Sivakasi, as its permanent project. So the Lions Kindergarten School was established in 1968 at a site of 15 cents magnanimously given to the Lions Club of Sivakasi for a nominal price by Messers KC.A.D. Chidambara Nadar and Gnanagiri Nadar of Coronation Litho Works, Sivakasi. Since its establishment in 1968, the Lions Kindergarten School steadily grew up into the Lions Junior School and then into the Sivakasi Lions Matriculation Higher Secondary School. Affiliated to the Central Board of Secondary Education, the school presented its first batch of students to All India Secondary School Examination in 1980 and All India Senior Secondary School Examinations in 1982. After switching over to the Matriculation and the Higher Secondary Board of Tamilnadu in 1983,
