The Scindia School Old Boys’ Association: shared beginnings, continuing connections.
A Fellowship That Endures
For generations of Scindians, school life has been the beginning of lasting friendships. Shared experiences and traditions create a sense of belonging that continues long after the school years.
The Scindia School Old Boys’ Association (SOBA), formally registered on 25 November 1959, carries that connection beyond school life. Through fellowship, mentorship, scholarships and service, it brings old boys together in a shared commitment to one another and to the school.
