About
The Cedar Schools, are established on a legacy of more than 55 years. It is a
third generation run organization.
It started as AMG with a humble beginning as a single teacher school for 40
children in 1990 in Vizag.
In 1995, catering to the demand and requirement of the public, it was shifted
into a 10acre campus in Bheemili with a palatial school building, a Junior
college block. Provision was also made to hostel girls and boys in different
G+2 blocks. A building solely for junior college girls is also available on this
campus.
Services were rendered to more than 2,500 school students and more than
500 Junior college girls.
.
Cedar was birthed from AMG in 2019.
Instilled with strong Christian values, at Cedar our vision is
to deliver quality education on a more efficient level and to
inculcate reverential education. We believe as Indians our
ethics and morals should be the foundation on which a
child grows and is given the freedom to fly high through
modern teaching and learning.
