M.D.S. VIDYA MANDIR INTER COLLEGE
THE HOUSE SYSTEM
At M.D.S. Vidya Mandir Inter College, the student body is divided into four houses — Bhagat, Subhash, Aazad, and Patel. These houses are named in honour of India’s great patriots and freedom fighters: Shaheed Bhagat Singh, Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose, Chandrashekhar Aazad, and Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel. Each house upholds the values, courage, and spirit of these national heroes, inspiring students to strive for excellence, unity, and service to the nation.
The students in the school are divided into four ‘Houses’ for academic, cultural and outdoor activities. Inter-house competitions are organized to enhance the four aspects of a well-rounded education, namely behavior, academics, sports, and co-curricular activities. Each House has a Captain and a Vice-Captain and Prefects.

House Organisation

Each house is led by a House Captain who serves as a representative for all students in their house throughout the year. They help coordinate teams, organize activities, and represent their house in meetings.
While the House System provides a platform for positive competition, the core aim is to provide fun and excitement, allowing students to realize their full potential. Participation enhances growth in academic, social, sporting, and cultural fields. Leadership opportunities foster responsibility and pride. Each term, the winning house receives the House Shield and prizes.
