About Institution

January 15th,1963-December 1975-Rev.& Mrs.W.G.Long from the U.S.A. in response to innumerable requests from the members of the community,founded the A.G.Church School at Asansol on the 15th January,1963.The school began with one nursery classroom attached to the church which they had constructed in 1960-62.Mrs.Edna Frankshaw was our first teacher .Within months time it was considered necessary to grade the children & divide them into two classes-a new teacher Mrs.E.Holmes was appointed & approximately 68 students were divided into two classes.Rev. & Mrs.Long, our founders,worked relentlessly & selflessly to build the school during their tenure.It was a great loss to the A.G. family,when the Longs decided to retire from the Mission & go back to the States in December 1975 after over 40 years of devoted service in this country.
January 1976-During the year 1976 Ms.Hudson as Principal took care of the Office Management & Financial matters of the school,while Mrs.A.Aidinyantz , Headmistress , was incharge of academics . The school,with over 500 students was upgraded to include class VII.In early 1977 Mrs.A.Aidinyantz took over as the Principal of the school and shortly afterwards Mrs E.John was appointed as Headmistress
It was a turning point in the history of the school and there was great jubilation when the school was upgraded to include class 10 & received Government Recognition with effect from January 1978 . Thereafter,the school secured affiliation to the Council for the ICSE Examination,New Delhi. Our first batch of 13 girls was sent up for the ICSE Examination,in November 1978 with cent percent results .In August 1978,the Inter Act club of the school was inaugurated with a membership of 35 students/staff.Rev. A. McCabe joined as the Head of the Institution.
