Around 43 yrs ago, when schools were mostly run by Convents and Governments, a visionary couple, Mr and Mrs Abbas Daruwala brought about the foundation of ‘Crescent High School’. With little experience but the dream of giving and imparting education to every strata of society irrespective of caste, creed or religion, slowly by slowly, brick by brick, Crescent High School became a name to reckon with in the education profession.
Taking on board only the Best faculty, training them further, handling everything with honesty, sincerity and determination, Daruwala Education Society brought laurels to its students and teachers.Their first S.S.C Batch was in 1989, till 2017, they have had cent % result since last two decades. Starting Computer Education when it was unheard of in 1990, Crescent High School has been giving to the Society various Doctors, Engineers, IT professionals, and even Scientist and Researchers working with the same Honesty and Sincerity in various parts of the world.
This is a permanently unaided minority school affiliated to secondary school certificate (SSC) Board. The school infrastructure occupies 20,000 sq.ft built up area comprising of a well equipped science laboratory, computer laboratory, school library, 2 audio-visual rooms, 3 playground and a dining area. The school runs in 3 different shifts for the Pre-Primary, Primary and Secondary section. The school promotes learning by catering individual attention to each student.

At CHS, we believe that ‘education’ is a wholesome, holistic exercise and as such we strive to give a whole new meaning to the word. Coupling the basic premise with the idea of sense of belonging to one family. And this one family is the accent on the all-round development of personality.

Late Mrs Mohammadi Abbas Daruwala Born and brought up in Hyderabad in a well-educated and reputed family. Late Mrs. M. A. Daruwala, an M.A. B.Ed envisioned a society where students could avail quality education irrespective of caste, creed, class and gender. She translated this vision into reality by establishing the Crescent High School in 1975 at Gultekdi, Pune. Her dedication and hard work grew from a modest 14 students to a vibrating and pulsating Institution of 3500 students today. This was possible because of the inspiration she gained from her father Late Mr. Munshi Abdul Rehman, Director, Animal Husbandry, Maharashtra. Her dream got wings with the support and encouragement of her husband Late Mr. Abbas Daruwala.
I am extremely sanguine that Crescent High School and Junior College since it’s genesis in 45 years has offered itself as a shell for sheltering and fostering human minds in their raw state to be matured into empowered innovators, inversionist and discoverers. The wheel of excellence and continual progress has been steered with values and conventions as its fulcrum, quality education, constant improvement in infrastructure, educational technology, teaching and learning processes as it fortifies innumerable efforts to the wheel on its track.
It gives me immense pleasure when I see my school growing and flourishing. It is hoped that the students, parents and all our well-wishers who are associated with the school, will have a feel of our know-how. We seek their co-operation and commit once more to see the sapling flourishing into a huge banyan tree for ages together. Let us make our students SMART.
Crescent School is an amazing school. I like the small class sizes because you get more attention from the teachers. Also, my friends are really nice and the teachers are kind and funny
The friends and the experiences I have gained at Crescent School have been better than any other. Every day I walk in I feel like I am at a second home and I wouldn’t change the 8 years I spent here.
