Houses
In March 2008 the school established four houses, each of which are named after historic Bengali figures and are assigned different colors to represent them. The students are required to wear colored shoulder badges to identify themselves according to their houses. The houses have their own prefects, and are planned to have permanent sports teams, which would then participate in inter-house sports competitions. The houses are:
- Dr.Muhammed Shahidullah House(Red)
- Dr.Md.Kudrat-e-Khuda House(Orange)
- Birshreshto Motiur Rahman House(Blue)
- Birshreshto Mohiuddin Jahangir House(Green)

Famous quotes containing the word houses:
“Do you see how the god always hurls his bolts at the greatest houses and the tallest trees. For he is wont to thwart whatever is greater than the rest.”
—Herodotus (c. 484–424 B.C.)
“There is a distinction to be drawn between true collectors and accumulators. Collectors are discriminating; accumulators act at random. The Collyer brothers, who died among the tons of newspapers and trash with which they filled every cubic foot of their house so that they could scarcely move, were a classic example of accumulators, but there are many of us whose houses are filled with all manner of things that we “can’t bear to throw away.””
—Russell Lynes (1910–1991)
