School emblem

[edit]

The Tagorean emblem represents three letters T I S. The central I is the leaping flame of the candle, signifying everlasting knowledge, enclosed by T which forms the arms and legs of the child who is never tired in his quest for this 'Vidya' or knowledge. Like the light of the candle, the child is continuously striving to reach for the stars.[2] Also, the school pledge is Aham Yogya Asmi, which has been drafted with an objective to instill confidence and forward-looking approach in the students.

[edit]

Tagore International School, in the Eastern part of Kailash hosts annual inter-school art, oratory and technology festival every year. In 2019, this fest was titled TAGFEST-2019.[3]
