About Us
For a long time, high Schooling was a distant dream to the villagers of Metikuppe in Heggada Devana Kote. The villagers approached His Holiness Sri Shivarathri Deshikendra Mahaswamiji when he had come to lay the foundation stone for the Netkal Basveshwara Temple, located inside the forest nearby. The villagers brought to his notice the problems faced by their children due to the absence of a high school within a radius of 10 km radius from Metikuppe. His Holiness responded positively to the request and opened a high school in Metikuppe. M. N. Basavarajappa, a leader of Metikuppe village was instrumental in setting up of JSS High School in Metikuppe.
At present, the school has a strength of around 200 students. It is located on its own land of 3 acres.
The school has a dedicated team of faculty with a strength of eight members and focuses on the all-round development of students.
