History
editThe school was established in 1900 by local people of Khoksar. The first headmaster of the school was Babu Purna Chandra Sen. The school was recognized as an English High School by Calcutta University in 1918. The recommendation and initiative of Rabindranath Tagore, the then zamindar of Birahimpur Mauza (Shilaidaha) played an effective role in registering the school from Calcutta University. On April 24, 1918, the construction of the first concrete building of the school began. The foundation stone of this building was laid by Roy Saheb Bhupendra Mukherjee, the then administrator of Kumarkhali subdivision. After independence the primary branch was separated. As a result, the school became only a secondary school. In 2018, the school was promoted to Government Secondary School.
