History
Kurmitola High School is one of the oldest high school in Bangladesh that was started its journey in 1948 when our mother land was totally corrupted by Pakistani autocrat rulers whose were always trying to deprive us from our ideal educational rights that’s why we could not make a grievous revolution against them. At first this school was weakly constructed in Khilkhet Tanpara Puran Bazar but after 1960 it was changed its location that has been permanently constructed in the center of Khilkhet Bazar.In 1971 the construction of this school was totally destroyed by Pakistani army but after our independence local people of this society have been always trying to refurbish this school. Now Kurmitola High School is established as a one of the inexpressible beautiful and largest high school in central Dhaka and approximately 4500 students are entertaining in their reading in this school.School Managing Comity
