Golden Jubilee Celebration


DAGA HIGHER SECONDARY SCHOOL TURNS 50.
Daga Higher Secondary School celebrated its 50 years on 17 September 2012 by inaugurating an altar and launching a golden jubilee magazine.  The Golden Jubilee Celebration was graced by Sherig Lyonpo.


Dagana higher secondary school started as a primary school with about 150 students and three teachers (including the headmaster) in 1962. It was upgraded to junior high school in 1982 and later to a middle secondary in 2000. In 2009, it became a higher secondary school. Today, the school has 537 students, 26 teachers and 19 non-teaching staff.
