Short History
The Mariam Ashram High School was founded by the Servant of God Brother Flavian Laplant, csc in 1946. At present 920 students are studying here up to class one to ten. Most of them are marginalized. Brother Flavian had a dream educate them & to develop the humanity. Therefore, the may get their proper dignity, justice & basic needs. So, we the Brothers of St. Joseph Province, Brothers society committed to continue this Apostolic with the burning zeal & the spirit of Father Moreaue. To improve the heart, to form the basic manner, to enlighten the marginalized students moreover, to educate them properly Moriam Ashram High School was founded. Most of the students of Moriam Ashram High School are from the nearest bank of the river Karnaphuli, area close to Bay of Bengal, Chattagram. In fact, marginalized are the homes of the poor and their families, and provide the lowermost shelter to the people. These marginalized dwellers, parents of the students of Moriam Ashram High School, are mostly people who work for the higher class; they are working in the homes, fishing, cleaning cars, working as labourers, rickshaw pullers, auto drivers in addition; lead their lives with small business like tea stall, moving shop and seasonal vegetables seller. Families and individuals move from rural to town areas for several key perceptions like employment opportunities, higher income, improved infrastructure and educational opportunities however; reality becomes harsh than they dreamed of and all those turns into misperceptions. Many rural-city migrants become poorer and less educated due to the problems of decreased income. As a result, their perceptions turns into misperception therefore get no education at all. When daily living is their top priorities how could their poor parents think of sending their kids to the school? It was really out of their dream. This dream came true only because of the sensible thought of the authority of Moriam Ashram High School. In order to give free education to the marginalized students of Diang, Karnaphuli area Moriam Ashram High School was founded.
