Prince Matriculation Higher Secondary School (PMHSS) is a private institution located in the southern suburbs of Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India. The school is recognized by the state government of Tamil Nadu and is affiliated with the matriculation system of Tamil Nadu up to Standard 10 and the Tamil Nadu State Board for Standards 11 and 12.
Founded in 1978 by Dr. K. Vasudevan, (the current principal and correspondent) PMHSS is well known for consistently achieving state ranks in Standard 10 and 12 public examinations. The high academic standard of this institution is further underlined by the number of its students who have enrolled in prestigious professional institutions like the College of Engineering, Guindy, Madras Institute of Technology, Birla Institute of Technology and Madras Medical College.
About 3,000 students attend the school, with about 350 students in each year from grades 9-12.
Once every two years, the school organizes an exhibition called the Student's Science Arts and Crafts Exhibition, which demonstrates the creative strengths of its students. Projects are judged for technical depth, creativity, and presentation. This extravaganza opens with a procession of students and faculty through the streets of Madipakkam, followed by three days of exhibitions in the Madipakkam school. The exhibition closes with a formal awards ceremony on the final day.
The school also annually hosts athletics and volleyball competitions. Like many other schools, PMHSS celebrates Annual Day with much fanfare at the end of each academic year. This includes stage performances by students such as fancy dress competitions, drama, dance, and music. These cultural events are followed by an awards ceremony for students who have excelled in standard 10 and 12 board examinations, other academics, and sports throughout the year.
