eelam Kumari of Embee

Rosebud Secondary School,

Tura, who stood first in the

SSLC examinations 2019

conducted by the Meghalaya Board

of School Education has brought

pride and joy to her family and

school alike.

Neelam started her education at the

Embee Rosebud School, the school

that had its roots in 1991. The

Embee Rosebud Secondary

School was established in 2004

and has grown from strength to

strength with each passing year.

The School has been producing

excellent academic results every

year and this year it bagged the

most coveted rank. Out of 50050

students who appeared for the

SSLC exams conducted by the

MBOSE, Neelam stood first in

the entire state of Meghalaya

securing 96.16%.

Neelam gives credit to her

dedicated parents, Narayan Prasad

and Urmilla Devi of Tura, and her

caring and guiding teachers

for the success that she has

achieved. She follows a strict

timetable and makes it a point

to read the newspapers and

watches the evening news

daily. Along with her books

and extra reading it made all

the difference to her brilliant

result in the SSLC examinations.

Neelam is adored by her friends for

she is a true friend to her classmates.

She tries to help her friends to

“We need to maintain a

balance between our books

and the latest craze called

social media which has

become the bane of the youth

specially.”

understand difficult concepts

especially during the recesses.

She will be joining the KV Tura

to complete her Plus 2 where she is

going to focus on Science, chiefly in

Biology, as she is keen on becoming

a doctor and serving society, mainly

the poor.

The topper has praised her

school for the environment which

allowed everybody to find their

own areas of interests and achieve

success. The credit to maintain this

beautiful environment goes to the

management of the school

headed by Ms Sheila Newar.

She threw in a word of

caution to her friends when

she said, “We need to maintain

a balance between our books

and the latest craze called

social media which has

become the bane of the youth

specially.”

Such sane advice coming

from a young girl of 15 years

tells you a lot about Neelam

Kumari. And her alma mater

believes that she will conquer

many more challenges. Cheers and

congratulations to Neelam Kumari!

school manager,
