FBS forges and nurtures relationships with parents, alumni and the larger community in the city and nearby villages as a responsible stakeholder in society. These relationships benefit the students by shaping their values, experiences and growth.
FBS values parents as equal partners in ensuring students’ academic, emotional and social development. Open communication and collaboration between teachers and parents make our students feel equally supported at school and home.
Parents attend all the functions at FBS, such as Independence Day or the Annual Science Exhibitions or the Annual Sports Day. They can also visit the school on four Open Days in the year to interact with the teachers to discuss their children’s progress. Parents of Foundation Level students can visit FBS on any Saturday.
We organise special events for parents, such as book readings, parenting sessions, or interactions with child development specialists.
“The outstanding support of the teachers has helped my child learn her lessons easily. Teachers are highly innovative and allow my child to learn at her own pace. They also value and respect my input as a parent. Thanks to the FBS Teachers.”
“There is a strong sense of community bond prevailing in FBS. I also appreciate the excellent communication from the school end and prompt responses to e-mails and phone messages by teachers and admin staff. The ambience is fantastic!”
“The teachers were supportive, diligent and regular throughout the pandemic year despite the challenges. I want to express my deepest gratitude and appreciation to all the teachers and school for giving more than 100% throughout the year to ensure that the students do not feel left out in the absence of physical classes.”
We actively nurture our relationship with the FBS alumni through many activities of the Alumni Cell. The Cell offers a host of services that helps them keep in touch with their batch mates and keep them updated on developments in school.
Alumni contribute to the school’s infrastructure development, scholarships, and awards for deserving students. They visit the school to give talks, take sessions on entrepreneurship or business, or share career advice and experiences with current students.
The flagship alumni event, FBS Reunion, brings everyone together to meet their friends, current students, and teachers.
“FBS is not a typical school like any other that you see around. I considered and even now consider it as my home. FBS made me what I am today. If I could give any advice to parents or students considering this school, take advantage of the wonderful opportunities that FBS has to offer.”
“As an alumnus of the school, I feel proud that I was a student of FBS. The faculty and staff genuinely care about the students and are available around the clock to help with student needs. I was always in the best hands during my school days.”
“I have had a wonderful time at FBS with the comfortable academic environment, friendly staff and ample resources. There are so many activities that you could engage in along the way till you complete schooling. I sometimes yearn for those unforgettable days in FBS.”
Community Service is an integral part of the school since its infancy and is one of the foundational principles of the school. The FBS Social Service Club leads the community service initiatives.
Middle and Secondary school students conduct awareness campaigns, non-formal education initiatives, visits to old age homes, orphanages, eco-sustainability drives, etc., to engage with the larger city community. Children, other than participating in outreach programmes, raise funds and collect reusable clothes, cookware, furniture, etc.
Social outreach programmes are planned and coordinated by teachers.
They accompany the children and actively participate in the outreach programmes.
We partner with NGOs, Government Departments, Corporates and Hospitals for various initiatives. Participation gives them opportunities to reach out to the underprivileged inculcating the virtues of empathy, generosity, and a spirit of camaraderie in the students. Some of the initiatives are listed below.
“Being part of ‘Vana Mahotsav’ was a wonderful experience for me. I felt proud to plant a few saplings. I pledged to participate in the Vana Mahostov in the coming years.”
“I am excited by the enthusiasm and active participation of the Nature Club of Future Bhubaneswar School students in Vana Mahotsav. We will continue to be associated with FBS in our CSR activities in future.”
“We are greatly indebted to the students and staff of Future Bhubaneswar School for extending timely help to flood-hit people of our village. More than the things we have received in kind, we appreciate the fellow feeling of the students. These children and their parents who donated money to help us in need are truly noble.”
