Houses
The students are divided into four houses - Ruby (red), Emerald (green), Sapphire (blue) and Topaz (yellow). Competition between the houses takes place in the form of inter-house activities like sports, athletics, and the Youth Festival. Meritorious houses are awarded house points, based upon their social activities throughout the academic year in such social activities like the annual athletic meet and the annual cultural meet (Youth Festival). At end of each year a house cup is awarded to the best House on basis of points earned.

Famous quotes containing the word houses:
“I cannot go to the houses of my nearest relatives, because I do not wish to be alone. Society exists by chemical affinity, and not otherwise.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“Trust him to have his bitter politics
Against his unacquaintances the rich
Who sleep in houses of their own, though mortgaged.
Conservatives, they don’t know what to save.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
“Midway the lake we took on board two manly-looking middle-aged men.... I talked with one of them, telling him that I had come all this distance partly to see where the white pine, the Eastern stuff of which our houses are built, grew, but that on this and a previous excursion into another part of Maine I had found it a scarce tree; and I asked him where I must look for it. With a smile, he answered that he could hardly tell me.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
