True to its Mission Statement, the history of Dominic Savio School is an enlightened blend of Relationship, Integrity and Excellence in every attempt to achieve its goal. Rev.Fr.C.Restelli was responsible for the initial brand building and increasing the students influx, from them on there was no turning back for Dominic Savio Preparatory School. The gates of Dominic Savio Preparatory School opened on 15th July 1957 with Rev.Fr.Tuena as its first Principal. It merely had 10 boys as the total strength spread across two classes in a two-storeyed building. It was meant to be a feeder School for St.Bede’s and has found favour and made sure it gained fame day after day.
