VISAKHAPATNAM: The Jawahar Navodaya Vidyalaya at Kommadi on city outskirts has received the Best School of the year in the country by the Navodaya Vidyalaya Samiti in the area of integrating technology with education and its teacher G.V.S. Nageswara Rao received the award under the teacher’s category in the same contest.

Principal of the school C. Prabhakara Reddy received the award and a certificate from Secretary (Education) A.N. Rath at a function held at NCERT, New Delhi on February 18, according to a press release from the school on Monday. JNV Kommadi is one of the four best schools selected for the award across the country for the contest organised by Intel and Navodaya Vidyalaya Samiti.
