Short History

On May 27, 1957, Heavenly Father Leo Gomez, Heavenly Father B. Rodrigues came from Rangamati to Bandurban and on the advice of Father Leo Gomez, Father Rodrigues returned to Rangamati. Father Leo Bandarban's parishioners benefited from heavenly daily meals. It should be noted that before Father Rodrigues returned to Rangamati, Adomong Master, with the cooperation of Adomong Master, temporarily stayed in a small bite of his bamboo Machang house and established contact with Father Leo with the family. Father Leo stayed in this family and started missionary work. Father Leo gladly accepted the offer to sell his land along with the 13th Bomang land and built a gaza in accordance with government regulations and the forested hill at the behest of King Heavenly Kyajsai's son Heavenly Hathwai Pru (Hada Babu). He executed the purchase and sale deed for the construction of Dhanya School in Padpeeth. As a result, the construction of the bamboo Machang house church was completed on December 30, 1957. The room was (408) feet. Bamboo fence floor 200 tree poles. 4-bay Machang house with floor height (8) feet from ground. Don Bosco Primary School started work with two teachers and 30 students before a partial extension of the bamboo machang house built at the request of the energetic local Marmads; A room used as a warehouse was vacated and turned into a dormitory due to demands from parents in remote areas; On March 15, 1958. The importance of naming Don Bosco School and Don Bosco Dormitory is that an Italian Catholic priest, saintly man, philanthropist, philanthropist, especially the underprivileged and neglected children with the light of education, dedicated his life to the world, to make him memorable. For this mission school and hostel are named after him, so that the neglected underprivileged children of Bandurban hill area get the light of education. Organized by Roman Catholics and founded and run by Fatima Rani Dharmapalli, the reputation of this Mission School and Mission Boarding quickly spread among the people of the area. As a result; The Catholic Mission authorities have upgraded the school to Lower Secondary School as per the rules on the request of the Don Bosco School without keeping it in the primary education category. It is noted that the then Bandurban Sub-Divisional Administrator, Circle Officer and other government employees were more interested in enrolling their children in this mission school. The main reason for this is the discipline, ethics, ethics and quality education assurance of this mission school.

The Bishop kindly agreed to hand over the Don Bosco Lower Secondary School established by the Catholic Mission to a committee of local dignitaries for the purpose of making it a high school. In view of this: On 1st January 1976, a total of 15 students of 10th class of Don Bosco High School under Comilla Board of Education got the opportunity to participate in the SSC examination for the first time.
