History
[edit]The school was started by Swami Muttu /S..M Michael on 12 January 1977 in Alalpatti, Darbhanga with 65 students. There were five teachers. The classes ran from L.K.G. to 3rd standard. The school provided a conveyance facility to its students through hired autos. The first school day function was on 8 December 1977.
In the year following the inception, the number of pupils went up to 270 and classes ran from L.K.G. till fifth standard. By the third year of its running, the school had 300 plus students and classes till seventh standard. By the fifth year, class eighth had been added.
In ten years since 1977, Madonna had more than 650 students. The school started taking admission based on tests conducted. The teaching faculty consisted of teachers from various states. In those days the other schools in Darbhanga had timings of 9 am to 4 pm. Madonna brought a change by introducing early morning timings of classes from 7 am to 12 pm. It was the first school in the district to introduce computer education in the school curriculum.[citation needed] The school started with three and then five computers in an air-conditioned computer laboratory.

By September, the ground floor was finished, and classes were commenced soon after. Madonna applied for an affiliation to the ICSE board in 1999, and following an inspection by the board in 1999, affiliation was granted to the school in 2000. In April 2000, the ninth standard was started. Two years later, in 2002, with just twelve students, the first batch of Madonna appeared in ICSE's tenth board examinations.
