As the then Bengal Governor opined the school as an unhygienic one, Mr. Barton founded the current school building. In 1991, the school started two shifts: morning & day. Currently it is regarded as the best school of the south-east region of Bangladesh. The present Headmaster of this school is Sabina Yesmin.
