Rejuvenation of our alma mater- D N High School- is another wish and if not something great, we can at least help in gathering its folks! And the arrangements for the platinum jubilee lead us towards that end.
The passing away of Dr. KK Behera- president of DNHSOSA- is certainly a great blow yet if we can fire the imagination of a few key stake holders then holding a really successful jubilee function would not be a difficult affair. As per my humble perception the three key persons- old students- for the success of the jubilee functions are:
1) Sri Balaram Prusty, our beloved Prusty sir, who not only served the school for long periods as an assistant teacher but also set an example as a head master. He is the Vice-president of DNHSOSA and with the demise of our president he is the de-facto president. He has also been elected as the president of the ‘Platinum jubilee celebration committee’ (Cell phone no: 9938613636)
2) Sri Jhadeswar Mishra; our beloved Jhadu sir (1976 Batch); as an assistant teacher in DNHS he is our link with the school administration. His proven managerial skills and dedication towards the school is already the talk of the town. He has also been elected as the Treasurer of the ‘Platinum jubilee celebration committee’(Cell phone no: 9438191933)
3) Sri Sandeep Behera; popularly known as Tikoo Bhai (1978 batch). As the successful organizer of “Nanhi pari”- a beauty pageant contest for pre-teen age girls- he has already proven his managerial skills and finding him to be the right fit he has been elected as the Secretary of the ‘Platinum jubilee celebration committee’.

Our president Dr. Karuna Kar Behera passed away
Dr. Karuna Kar Behera, aged about 90 years, passed away in Bhubaneswar, at around 3 ‘o’ clock in the morning of 25 July 2009- today. For last few months he was indisposed and frequently being admitted to hospitals for treatment.
He has been serving as the president of ‘DNHS OSA’- D.N.High School Old Students’ Association since its inception/ registration in 1982. Since 2004 Dr. Behera was seriously trying to hand over this responsibility to some younger members yet owing to lack of interest among the younger members and fervent requests from other members he was forced to continue at the helms of affairs.
He wished to see the successful conduct of the platinum jubilee celebrations and towards this end dragged himself to several preparatory meetings despite his severe illness. His punctuality was legendary and in his demise the ‘DNHS OSA’ has lost one of its main stay and it would be almost impossible to replace him.
Sri. Sandeep Behera- the secretary of the Platinum jubilee organizing committee- is grief stricken and is making arrangements to place the mortal remains of Dr. Behera in the D.N.High School premises for a few minutes, so as to facilitate the old students and citizens of Kendujhar to pay their last respect to this outstanding son of the soil. He is sad that Dr. Behera’s last wishes – a reinvigorated D. N. High School and successful conduct of the platinum jubilee celebrations -could not be fulfilled during his life time.
Please pass this message to the alumni of D. N. High School and all others who love Kendujhar.

Dreaming to see DNHS among the best 1,000 schools
We do not stop playing because we are old; we grow old because we stop playing.
We have to laugh and find humor everyday and what’s more important is, we must have a dream to strive for!
. When you lose your dreams, you die. We have so many people walking around who are dead and don't even know it! There is a huge difference between growing older and growing up. Its like if you are thirty-six years old and lie in bed for one full year and don't do one productive thing, you will turn thirty-seven years old.
Anybody can grow older. That doesn't take any talent or ability. The idea is to grow up by always finding the opportunity in change. Have no regrets. The elderly rarely have regrets for the things we did, but rather for things we did not do. The only people who fear death are those with regrets.
Now how if we dream to make DNHS one among the best 1,000 schools in the world?
