Let us first understand the meaning of excellence. The accurate description of it is rather difficult to give. When we see excellence in something, we appreciate it but how it can be achieved is difficult to find for us. One needs to be specific about what they are looking for in a practical and tangible way in order to demonstrate excellence. The students strive to achieve the set of values that define the parameter for excellence in Bodhi Bhavans, one of the best CBSE affiliated schools in South Kolkata. Here we will discuss some of them
