Our Founding Story
RNPS was founded in 1975 by the late Mrs. Suryakumari, daughter of the esteemed Professor M.K. Shanmugam. A distinguished scholar and educationalist, Professor Shanmugam was the founding principal of Sir Theagaraya College in Chennai. The inspiration to establish the school came from Mrs.Suryakumari’s mother-in-law, the late Mrs. Ranganayaki Ammal, who was also the sister of Professor Shanmugam.
It is often said that great minds think alike. Inspired by this belief, Mrs. M.S.Suryakumari, with the unwavering support of her husband, Mr. M.Sathyanarayanan, founded the school. As a heartfelt tribute to the late Mrs. Ranganayaki Ammal, they named the school 'Ranga Nursery and Primary School.
  Learning inspires action.
Late Mrs. M.S.Suryakumari, inheriting the principles of her father, the late Prof. M.K. Shanmugam, remained steadfast in following the path of her revered mentor. She always emphasized discipline, moral values, and quality education as top priorities. Her guiding mottos, 'Work is worship' and 'Cleanliness is next to godliness,' continue to be fundamental principles upheld at the school.

Following the passing of the esteemed principal, her daughter, Mrs. M.S. Kalaivani, who has worked alongside her since 1991, has now taken on the responsibility of running the school.
The strong foundation of educational excellence continues to guide the values and mission of RNPS.
