Establishment of Middle School

For the development of their village, Late Shri shardanand roy, Dr. Mohan Roy along with Mr. Kumar Roy took the initiative to establish reputed education system in Chunapur. This effort was initially made by their grandfather Shri. Bankhandi Roy, who constructed a Sanskrit school in the year 1935. The school could not operate after the death of Shri. Bankhandi Roy in the year 1942.

Dr. Mohan Roy along with Mr. Kumar Roy took steps to set up free education for their village. They started the work to build a school in the name of their parents Smt. Shashimukhi Roy and Shri. Ramnarayan Roy. About 3 acres of land were required for building the school. Mr. Kumar Roy persuaded a number of landowners in the village to donate land. These included Shri. Ramnarayan Roy, Shri. Sunderkand Jha, Shri. Sambhunath Roy and Shri.Tirpit Roy. Mr. Kumar Roy’s business (Four Star Picture Palace) also funded the construction of the school building. In 1988, the construction of "Shashimukhi Ramnarayan Aadarsh Madhya Vidyalaya" (Middle school) was finished and donated to the government of Bihar.This school creates many bright students of the chunapur who are currently serves all over the country for the betterment of the humanity.

DAV Public School

Further to establish a quality education system in Chunapur, Dr. Mohan Roy and Mr. Kumar Roy reached out to the Dayanand Anglo-Vedic School System to open their branch in Chunapur. Shri Ramnarayan Roy, father of Dr. Roy and Mr. Roy, donated his land for the proposed school. D.A.V system opened their branch in Chunapur in the year 1998. The school was called S. R D.A.V Public School (Shahsimukhi Ramnarayan DAV public school) in honor of the couple Mrs. Shashimukhi Roy and Mr. Ramnarayan Roy.

This school served the entire Purnea area. However, Chunapur was not very well connected to the city of Purnea, which was an inconvenience for the school students. For this reason, the school decided to move to the Purnea Municipal Area. Dr. Mohan Roy donated land in Purnea for this move. In the year 1999, S.R.D.A.V Public School moved from Chunapur to Purnea.
