Half a century back, a sleepy but picturesque village at the foothills in the southern part of Thane District called Panchpakhadi, later popular to be as Kisan Nagar began attracting people from all walks of life, across the country. Thanks to the rapid and extensive industrialization of the surrounding areas. The modest Kannadigas, hailing from Karnataka decided to settle down to breathe and to grow with Kisan Nagar. Among those handful of Kannadigas were the pioneers of Navodaya Kannada Seva Sangha, Conductors of Navodaya English High School. Candid deliberation and constructive efforts of these great souls gave a definite shape to their imagination, in the form of Navodaya Kannada Seva Sangha in 1969 and followed the birth of Navodaya English High School in 1970.
The Sangha was filled with felicity & gratitude as it opened the two storyed building ‘Navodaya Sadan’ Sangha's own building to house the sangha and the school in 1971. The inauguration of the present school building, the Navodaya Sadan, Kisan Nagar-1, took place during 1992-1993. During the year 1986-1987 a new building was purchased at Shivaji Nagar, Thane to accommodate the secondary section. As years gave way to decades, thousands of students enjoyed the warmth of this nestle, enabling themselves to emerge out jubilantly, to conquer, the still unconquered realms of learning.
The administration of the school rests with Navodaya Kannada Seva Sangha through the Head of the Institution. It frames rules and regulations from time to time and make changes as per the requirement for the smooth management of the school and the same shall be binding on all pupils, parents/guardians and the staff members of the school.
