Lady Ampthil Govt. School & College

According to the historical records, the Lady Ampthill's is one of the oldest girls' schools in town which was founded by Sri Kumbhakonam Krishnamachary in 1892. The school was established in a view of facilitating and encouraging girls' primary education which led a controversy at that time and people called it as Jenda (flag) School. Later, the school was taken over by the government in 1919 and upgraded it as a higher secondary school. A junior college was conjoined to the school in 1969 and many girls were educated in it. The school has been imparting education in the hinterland for over a century. Ref : http://www.hoparoundindia.com/andhra-pradesh/city-guides/machilipatnam.aspx
