Many of the high achievers joined AVMA in Grade 3 after studying in Gujarati medium schools and came from families engaged in modest occupations such as tailoring, labour work, data entry operations and small trading activities.
School topper Namya Shah, whose family is associated with paint brush trading work, joined the school in Grade 3 after studying in a Gujarati medium school. Reflecting on her achievement, she said: “Adani Vidya Mandir shaped my dreams into direction. Its guidance fuelled my ambition and its values built my foundation.

Science stream topper Vinayak Parmar, whose family is engaged in tailoring work, also joined the school in Grade 3. Humanities topper Purva Rathod, who comes from a labourer’s family and transitioned from a Gujarati medium school, secured 93.4 per cent.
Parva Sanghvi, whose family is associated with jute bag trading work, scored 97.4 per cent along with a perfect 100 out of 100 in Accountancy and 99 out of 100 in Business Studies. Crediting the school’s mentorship and learning environment, she said: “Scoring 97.4 per cent without any private tuition was possible because of the guidance and encouragement from Adani Vidya Mandir.”
Harshita Parmar, daughter of a data entry operator, and Rahul Varma, who comes from a labourer’s family, also joined AVMA in Grade 3 after studying in Gujarati medium schools and went on to excel academically.
