The Crescent School had its origin in July, 1968 in a rented building at Harrington Road, Chetpet, Chennai. At first, there were only 50 students on the roll. It was only on July 19, 1971 that the school was shifted to the present building at the Seethakathi Estate, Vandalur, Chennai. Situated in the midst of enchanting surroundings, the school offers plenty of scope to students for developing their innate talents, physical stamina and spiritual growth. The rapid development of the school from a very humble beginning into a full-fledged institution is in a large measure due to the munificence, large heartedness and farsightedness of the Members of the Seethakathi Trust.
