The then Governor of Rajasthan Kalraj Mishra started biometric attendance in the school in 2019. Today, about 500 students from six villages are enrolled in this school. The students of the school are succeeding in the national income and merit based examinations and winning in Mandal level sports.

To make the daughters self-reliant, separate training is given in sewing and embroidery. For which four machines are also available in the school. After getting 100% enrollment of students passing class 8 in nearby inter colleges, the school family sends them off with passbook and ATM. Innovative teachers from many nearby schools took training from the selected teacher. The teachers are shaping the future of children by contributing in schools of remote districts.
