About Us

Good Shepherd International School (GSIS)

In 1977, the late Dr. P.C. Thomas and Mrs. Elsamma Thomas founded Good Shepherd International School (GSIS) in Ooty. What began as the Good Shepherd Public School transformed into a renowned international co-educational institution in 1995. Driven by their passion for education, both founders dedicated their careers to nurturing young minds in a tranquil 150-acre campus nestled in the Nilgiri Hills, 7000 feet above sea level.

At the heart of GSIS lies the unwavering motto: “Truth, Trust, and Triumph.” Today, the legacy is carried forward by the next generation, providing holistic development and individual attention to every student.
