Lt. Sh. Ravi Taneja was not only a pioneering educationist but also a guiding light whose passion for nation-building through education laid the foundation of two esteemed institutions—S D Memorial Sr. Sec. School (SDMS) and S D Heritage Pride School (SDHPS).
His vision was rooted in the belief that true education is one that develops intellect, instills values, and empowers students to create a better tomorrow. A firm believer in discipline, character, and service, Ravi Sir’s philosophy of education was holistic and heart-driven.
From humble beginnings, he dreamt of creating schools that would nurture confident, compassionate, and responsible citizens. Under his leadership, the foundation stone of SD Memorial was laid with a deep sense of purpose to uplift children with quality, affordable education in a value-based environment.
Years later, the dream expanded with the birth of SDHPS, a modern learning institution inspired by NEP 2020 but deeply anchored in the values he cherished: respect, responsibility, resilience, and excellence
Though he is no longer with us physically, his words and wisdom echo through every corridor of our school:
"Education is not just about scoring marks - it’s about shaping lives."
"Discipline and empathy go hand in hand—build character first, success will follow."
Lt. Sh. Ravi Taneja continues to live on in the hearts of thousands of students, teachers, and families who were touched by his unwavering commitment to education. His legacy inspires us every day to uphold the values he stood for and to strive for excellence in every endeavor.
We remain forever indebted to him for his vision, his dedication, and his boundless love for learning.
"You left us beautiful memories, your love is still our guide. Though we cannot see you, you’re always by our side."
