Going back in time, in 1908, Sri Patibandla Sitaramaiah and his siblings donated a plot of land to establish a school at LAM village near Guntur town, to provide education to the underprivileged children. The government took initiative at Sri Sitaramaiah’s behest to run the institution and aptly named it Sri Patibandla Sitaramaiah Zilla Parishad High School. It is still going great guns with campus strength of 300 plus at LAM itself and is one of the reputed century plus old educational institutes in the district; a matter of pride for the locals.
