About Our School

Background

Education is the backbone of a nation. More education better light. Keeping this thought in mind William Carey International School was established on 8th August, 2008. The name was chosen following the life of Dr. William Carey (17 August 1761 – 9 June 1834) who was an English Baptist Missionary and a Particular Baptist minister, known as the “Father of modern missionary.” Carey was one of the founders of the Baptist Missionary Society as well as educational movement in his time. The world has been greatly influenced by his vision for Christ & education. In 1818, the mission founded Serampore College to train indigenous ministers for the growing church and to provide education in the arts and sciences to anyone regardless of caste or country. There are many colleges & universities named after him around the world such as: William Carey International University in Pasadena, California,Carey Baptist Grammar School in Melbourne, Victoria,Carey College in Colombo, Sri Lanka and William Carey University,Hattiesburg,Mississippi etc.
However, now we are running towards a great achievement with full speed to develop our school which became possible by his life & love for education to strengthen the nation. When he was in India he learnt Bangla very easily and became fluent better than a Bengali of that time. We also remember him for his excellent work to the Bangla Grammar which has made Bangla Language easy to learn. He had done great job for Christian society by translating The Holy Bible from English to Bangla. This was one of his greatest achievements. He has dedicated himself in teaching the Words of God. He also taught how to be a good teacher. A good teacher should practice good behavior, so people may received Gods message by our teaching. We are grateful to Dr. Carey. He said, “Expect great things from God; and attempt great things for God”. We, the founder members of WCIS were inspired by the life of William Carey and it was decided that we will establish a school in his name to express our gratefulness. Since then we started to work on running a school. It was established 8th August, 2008 by the name William Carey International School (WCIS) at Dhaka.
