Mymensingh Zilla School

My School ♥️ My Proud ❤️

Very famous school in Mymensingh. We love this school.

A school which have no strict rules. The behaviour of students is so bad. They have no sense about good behaviour to others. But they are so good at study.

In 1846 it started as an English medium school called 'Hardinge School' at Mr. F. B. Camp's, the then Deputy Collector of the East India Company. On 3 November 1853 it started as a full-fledged English medium school near Kachari (present Laboratory School). However, it is no longer an English medium one; it follows the national curriculum of Bangladesh and the medium of instruction is Bengali. .Bhagawan Chandra Bose, father of scientist Jagadish Chandra Bose,was the first headmaster of the school. It was called multilateral pilot school during the time of first Deputy Commissioner of Mymensingh, S.M.A Kajmi, by the government. The main and present school structures were built in 1912. In 1965 the school compound was designed and reformed by an American science teacher, Mr. Dril. The school had been used as a base of the British Army during World War II. It was also used as a training camp for freedom fighters during Bangladesh Liberation War in 1971. And more than 40 students sacrificed their lives, that time, fighting against the Pakistan Army. On 3 March 1981, police fired tear-gas to subdue rioting Mymensingh Zilla School students. Sixty people were injured in the clash, which began when the students attempted to reoccupy part of their school hostel building that the government had recently given over to an adjacent primary training institute.

The school provides education from the third through the tenth grades. Upon successful completion of the eighth grade, students have to choose to be in either the Science or Business Studies stream. However, joining science stream is contingent upon marks obtained in mathematics and general science in Junior School Certificate examination. Since the ninth grade the whole student body, thus, gets separated into two groups: Science and Business Studies. Upon successful completion of the tenth grade the students are allowed to sit for the Secondary School Certificate (SSC) examination.
