General Information

Carmel means an orchard or garden land. As a proper name Mount Carmel designates as well known mountain ridge overlooking the Mediterranean Sea in Israel. Due to its panoramic vista and luxuriant vegetation the prophets of the Bible saw an image of God's beauty in it and took it as a sign of God's love and blessings for his people. It is here on this Mount that the great Prophet Elijah established the worship of one, true God and meted out justice to the oppressed people. It is also on this mount that the Carmelite Order, a Religious Congregation in the Catholic Church, had its origin. The members of this order, imbibing the spirit of the great prophet, dedicate themselves to the service of human without any distinction of cast, creed or race. Mount Carmel School is an expression of these values.

Mount Carmel School commits itself to cooperate with the local people to involve enlightened young men and women of character who would be the best service to humanity. Although opened to boys and girls of all communities, it is a minority community School run by Christians, enjoying all the rights and privileges enshrined in Article 29 and 30 of the Indian Constitution.
