With the benign blessings of our revered Founder, Dr Mrs Lilly George, and under the visionary stewardship of our Sherpa & Vice Chairman, Mr Dennis George, Shalom Hills International School hosted the Scholar Badge Ceremony for the academic session 2025–26. Class X and XII Board Examination toppers, along with students who secured the highest marks in individual subjects, were felicitated for their exceptional academic accomplishments. Students who maintained 100% attendance throughout the academic session were commended for their discipline, sincerity, and unwavering commitment.
Scholar Badges were conferred upon meritorious learners in recognition of their outstanding academic performance, perseverance, and pursuit of excellence. A defining feature of the ceremony was the conferment of the Pragati and Unnati Awards, visionary initiatives conceptualised by our respected Sherpa & Vice Chairman, Mr Dennis George, as an integral component of the school's Differentiated Learning Programme. Introduced under his guidance and mentorship, these awards celebrate the transformative power of perseverance, continuous improvement, and personalised learning. The Pragati Award recognised students who improved by more than ten marks in their respective subjects, while the Unnati Award honoured those who achieved an exceptional advancement of more than twenty marks.
More than recognising academic progress, these awards reflected the school's steadfast commitment to nurturing every learner's unique potential and fostering a culture where growth is valued as highly as achievement. The awardees were felicitated by Mr Dennis George, whose inspiring address encouraged students to pursue excellence with humility, embrace lifelong learning, and remain steadfast in upholding the values and ethos of Shalom Hills International School. More than a felicitation ceremony, the Scholar Badge Ceremony reaffirmed the school's abiding belief that sincere effort, discipline, resilience, and continuous growth are the truest foundations of success.
