Under CDP, KEEP have recently in partnership with Crooked Trails and the 3 Summits for Nepal, US, and Crystal Mountain Treks, the water taps were constructed. Access to clean drinking water and basic sanitation facilities transform the lives of the school students and even of the local people in that area. In 2010-2011, the major construction program was initiated from the Crooked Trails and the 3 Summits for Nepal, US, and Crystal Mountain Treks for the secondary level, where four classrooms have been constructed. It was extended vertically to the previous construction. Later 45 sets of the school furniture were also made available to the school. On October 16 2011, the co-founder and executive director of the Crooked Trails, Christine Torrison Mackay, officially inaugurated this school with a mission to provide quality education.
