Our Principal    
 

She is the guiding light and the moving spirit behind the rapid growth and progress of the school. Mrs Mohini Bindra has been steering the destiny of the school since April 1990. One of the  youngest ever Principals of a Ramjas School, Mrs. Mohini Bindra joined in 1974 as a Physics teacher and soon made a mark as an outstanding teacher. Always the keen scholar, she has authored 4 books on Physics. Even as a student, she was a trail blazer. Winner of the JSTS and Senior Science Talent Scholarship, she was a recipient of President's Guide award and the University Topper in her B.Ed..

Mrs. Mohini Bindra was awarded National Award from The President of India on Teacher's Day. for the year 2007. It is the CBSE National Award which is given by the Ministry of HRD, given in public recognition of valuable services to the community as a teacherof outstanding merit. She received it from the President at Vigyan Bhawan.

A simple, unassuming woman who has endeared herself to students and staff alike with her gentle demeanour and inimitable style of directness and informity, Mrs. Mohini Bindra is a woman with a mission. Embodying the values of hardwork, perseverance and exemplary patience, she is fired with a dogged determination to make Ramjas School, Pusa Road, an institution which not only helps students along the road to academic achievement but promotes all-round development and prepares them to be active citizens.

From the Principal's Desk

A little boy watched a man sell cocoons on a dusty road day after day. He asked the man why he sold such ugly things."Do you know what beauty lies within this chrysalis? Here, take this and see for yourself.But you must be careful.Do not touch the cocoon until the butterfly comes out."

The boy ran home with it and waited eagerly. Soon, he saw an enchanting sight . A butterfly was beating its fragile wings against the hard wall of chrysalis. Feeling sorry that the butterfly had to struggle and wanting to help, the boy swiftly opened the cocoon. Out flopped a wet, brown, ugly thing.It fluttered a few feet and died because it did not have the muscle strength  to keep flying- strength that would have been developed through its struggle to leave the chrysalis. This struggle to learn and grow is built into the life story of most of the animal kingdom for a very good reason. It  is meant to be built into the human story as well. Do we as parents not take the role of the little boy and rescue our children from struggles that will help them build the strength they need to handle the even bigger struggles they will certainly encounter in their lives?

I'm sure, we as parents would not overprotect our children if we truly understand that we are doing more harm in the name of love than good.

Too many of us do not realize that when we overprotect our children from difficult situations and hurt feelings, we are leading them to develop the belief that they are not capable, resilient problem-solvers.

Have faith in children. They can survive disappointments and hardships. Children will pick up on the "energy" of your feelings even more than your actions. They'll learn to deal with them and that they can survive.

Keep in mind, that struggling is  an important part of any growth experience. In fact, it is the struggle that causes you to develop your ability to fly.

As parents and teacher, our gift to them is stronger wings....
