==History==
The school reports had a lowly beginning back in July 1968 when it started in the out houses of the then-[[Maharaja]] of Dewas. Dewas was an insignificant village at that time and had not developed to its current status. The founders, Sr. Bernadette and Sr. Rosalia used to commute by bus from [[Ujjain]], walking the residual distance to the palace ground with all the teaching accessories. As the number of students on the roll kept growing it became imperative to put up a school building. Fr. Reckwordt SVD supervised the planning and construction of the new school building on the Ujjain–Dewas road to which the school was shifted in 1971. In the span of 49 years since its establishment, the institute has contrived to teach thousands of students. Since its inception the school has acquired a high reputation among others of the present city.<ref name="smh">[http://stmarysdewas.org/aboutus.html St. Mary's Convent - History]</ref>
