Genesis

In the annals of educational history in Kalpakkam, the establishment of Kendriya Vidyalaya No. 1 emerges as a testament to foresight and dedication. Established in1970, this prestigious institution owes its existence to the visionary initiatives of the Department of Atomic Energy (DAE), Government of India.

The genesis of Kendriya Vidyalaya No.1 can be traced back to the burgeoning need for quality education for the children of employees working within the department of Atomic Energy. Recognizing the imperative environment for these young minds, the DAE undertook the momentous task of establishing a Kendriya Vidyalaya and getting it affiliated to Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE).

In the year 1995, Vidyalaya celebrated its silver jubilee commemorating 25 years of dedicated service in providing quality education to the community. Silver Jubilee was celebrated for three days under the guidance of Dr. Placid Rodriguez(chairman VMC) and Shri. Udaya Moorthy(Principal). The District Collector, Shri. Ram Mohan Rao graced the occasion as the Chief Guest.

In the year 2020, a momentous milestone was reached as the Vidyalaya celebrated its Golden Jubilee for 50 years of unwavering dedication to educational excellence. As the Vidyalaya continues its journey of growth and innovation, each milestone serves as a testament to its enduring commitment to nurturing young minds and shaping the leaders of tomorrow.
