School Development after 2006
Without observing the declining demand of Teaching Profession, under political compulsions, certain policy measures initiated by the Government led to establishment of one High School each at the Villages of Komarika,Ademma Satram, Narasapuram, Mypad and Narayana Reddy Pet and Two high Schools at the Indukurpet Village itself in a chronological manner and allowed the private Institutions to play their own role. Inspite of the presence of number of High Schools, with the dedicated efforts of standards, teaching, discipline and the results kept the MKR High School as leader in imparting quality education in the Indukurpet Mandal and maintained a standard roll call of 600 for a decade till 2006.
The retirement of staff from time to time and the ban imposed by the Govt of A.P., the management was compelled to make alternative arrangements to upkeep the standards of education and for smooth administration of the Institution. There is no income for the MKR High School and its Management Committee as on that date. At this juncture the management committee members did not initiate any steps for recruitment of necessary staff and felt it is a burden for the Members and kept silent. The attitude of the management committee members created a serious impact on the standards of the Institution. The Education Department, Committee Members and the Public maintained silence over the issue and not initiated any steps for imparting education with standards.
At this juncture Mr. Jetty Rajendra Prasad Reddy who is working as Physical Education Teacher in the same school on assessing the situation, in the interest of students and institution-initiated steps in a planned manner for the overall development of the school and for up keeping standards of education. Firstly, he made makeshift arrangements for a part of school structure and leased out the same to social welfare department for establishment of social welfare hostel attached to MKR High School. He convinced his friends and well-wishers for sponsoring the experienced Teaching and Non-Teaching Staff in the interest of the students and for sharing the expenditure for amenities from time to time.
Accordingly Jetty Rajendra Prasad Reddy along with his friends and well-wishers shared the expenditure for amenities and sponsored a contingent of 12 strong the experienced Teaching & Non-Teaching Staff ( Watchmen -1, Scavenger -1, Sweeper -1 and Office Boy -1 appointed in the year 2001 and paying the salaries through sponsors, In the year 2013 Science Assistant -1, Hindi Pandit -1, School Assistant -2, Second Grade Teacher -2 and Telugu Pandit -1 was appointed in the year 2013 for Telugu Medium Section) and paying the salaries through sponsors and well-wishers.
