Why boarding, for a Nashik family
Nashik has good schools, so the question with boarding is a different one: whether your child gets enough structure, sport, sleep and quiet study time in a day that also has to fit travel, tuition classes and screens. A residential school answers that by putting the whole day in one place.
Shivneri is on the Nashik-Pune side of the state, so you reach it on one highway without crossing Pune or Mumbai traffic. That makes a same-day campus visit, and later the drives for leave and parent meetings, easy to plan.
- CBSE Affiliation No. 1130133, run by Shivneri Foundation, a public trust
- 5,000+ students educated since 2004
- 600+ inter-school trophies and 800+ guest lectures
- Rated 4.9 on Google from 200+ reviews
