The school is very popular and honored for its indignity and development among the district community. With God’s guidance and blessings, the researcher is confident that the influence of the Kellogg-Mookerjee Memorial School will continue to produce workers in the field for education, administration, management and in various occasions. This school does not only endeavor to prepare individuals to be better fitted for the fast changing sociality, but also for the coming kingdom of God.
