Each class has four sections(A to D) from classes I to X and three sections(A to C) for classes XI and XII in this building. The classes I to X are divided into sections to lower the teacher-student ratio, to make teaching more efficient. The classes XI and XII were divided into sections A, B and C based on 10+2 level.
