Abous US : Let's know late Sri Ghanshyam Narayan Das-
The school was named in the honour of Sri Ghanshyam Narayan Das Ji, a well known Bar-at-law by profession as well as educationist. He dedicated his life for eradicating illiteracy, as well as to give relief to the downtrodden mass. He constructed his house in an area of more than 2.00 acres giving the appearance of dwelling place of the "Hrishis & Munies". He had chosen the place for his residential house as it was very near to the Gorakhnath temple and opposite to Gurukul School across the road now known as Sonauli Road. In the Gurukul system of school the students coming from different family used to stay under the care of the Gurus. The inmates used to rise very early in the morning. With their chanting of Ved Mantras, the morning used to become so charming and pleasant that it touched him and he decided to construct his residential house opposite to the Gurukul system of school across the Sonauli Road.
He had a very large library rich with various collections including rare books. In the school library where the rare books along with manuscript thesis and other books of Ghanshyam Narayan Das Ji were kept have now become antiques. From his library we could gather information about  many dignitaries like Mr. Nana Deshmukh, M.P. and founder of Deen Dayal Research Institute was very close to him and stayed with him in his residence at Gorakhnath for many years. We could learn from him that Late Sri Ghanshyam Narayan Das Ji used to engage himself for hours together in reading and writing on different subjects besides his simplicity and honest living.
Mr. Ram Briksh Mishra, Ex. Judge of Supreme Court, stayed with Late Sri Ghanshyam Narayan Das Ji for two years and stated that the life style of the personality is worthy to be remembered.
Mr. Ram Bachan Bhai, a gandhian and follower of Vinoba Bhave also used to stay with Late Sri Ghanshyam Narayan Das Ji in his house at Gorakhnath whenever he happened to be at Gorakhpur. He had all the praises for Late Sri Ghanshyam Narayan Das Ji and expressed great satisfaction for setting up of a school after the name of this great man. He pointed out that imparting of education to children is nothing but worship of God. So establishment of a school after his name is bound to pass on the qualities of this great man to the children of the school. Mr. Ram Bachan Bhai was a link between this great man and Baba Raghav Das Ji in whose name the B.R.D. Medical College has been set up.
Hon'ble Mahant Avaidya Nath Ji, Pithadishwar of Gorakhnath Temple has all the praises for him. He stated in his message that Late Sri Ghanshyam Narayan Das Ji was not only an Advocate but also a spiritual devotee. Whoever came to see him, he discussed with him about religion and spiritual matters. He also showed his pleasure for establishing the school after the name of Late Sri Ghanshyam Narayan Das Ji and termed it as an act of everlasting remembrance of this great man. 
The school runs under a society, viz., " Shree Ghanshyam Narayan Manav Kalyan Sansthan". Our aim is to impart the best possible education to the students of our school. We provide an environment which helps our students to prepare themselves for any future challenges. Our students are organized and we provide them the training to face successfully all odds coming across their academic career.
OUR FOUNDERS : OUR INSPIRATION -
Mr. Ram Bachan Bhai played an important role in setting up of the school. He took pains and toiled hard to overcome the hindrances which came across at its coming into being. In short by his tireless efforts and persuasion, the school could be setup. It will not be out of place to insert hereunder his message which he gave at the time of our first annual function and published in our first school magazine "Ananya". The message is self explanatory regarding our founder president.

जी0 एन0 नेशनल पब्लिक स्कूल की स्थापना प्रातः स्मरणीय आध्यात्मिक पुरूष के नाम पर है। आज उस विद्यालय का वार्षिकोत्सव है। आज यहां बच्चे अपने माता-पिता के  अरमान, भविष्य, आशा और कल्पना के साथ उपस्थित है। उनके माता-पिता भी हैं- जो इस समारोह में सम्मिलत होकर अपने अरमान के सालभर के उपलब्धियों का दर्शन करने को उत्सुक है। सभी का स्वागत है। प्रधानाध्यापिका तथा सभी अध्यापिकायें जिनके द्वारा विद्यालय सत्र का कार्यक्रम सम्पादित हुआ है- वे सब भी बधाई के पात्र हैं। बच्चों की शिक्षा भगवान की पूजा है। सौभाग्य है उनका जो इस कार्यक्रम से जुड़े है। बच्चा अपने साथ सारी सम्भावनायें लेकर आता है, उसका अन्र्तनिहित विकास ही शिक्षा है। बच्चा स्नेह सम्मान का भूखा है । जितना ही उसे स्नेह सम्मान मिलेगा-उतना ही उसके अन्तर्निहित शक्ति का विकास होगा। सारा हमारे दृष्टि में है। जैसी दृष्टि वैसी सृष्टि। एक सन्त महान शिक्षाशास्त्री बच्चों के बीच यही कहा करते थे कि मैं इनमें राम, कृष्ण, बुद्ध का दर्शन करता हू। सब महान बनेंगे। एक महात्मा तो कहा करते थे कि मैं आजीवन बाल वृत्ति से विचरना चाहता हूँ । तीन संस्थायें हैं जिससे बच्चे का निर्माण होता है। घर, समाज और विद्यालय । घर में संस्कार, समाज से विचार और विद्यालय से ज्ञान, लेकिन आज दो तो विघटित हो रहे हैं। संस्कार और विचार भी स्कूल में ही मिलना है। 24 घण्टे में 6 घण्टा मुश्किल से बच्चा विद्यालय में रहता है। अतः माता-पिता का भी इनके निर्माण में बड़ा हाथ है। अभिभावकों का स्कूल के प्रति सहयोग, सद्भावना और समय-समय पर सुझाव विद्यालय का ‘टोन’ बनाने में बहुत बड़ा योगदान प्रदान करता है। अध्यापक के मस्तिष्क में ज्ञान का दीप प्रज्वलित होकर उसके हदय में वात्सल्य की धारा बहती है, तथा हाथ में कर्म का गाड़ीव है ज्ञान, भाव और क्रिया तीनों का समन्वित विकास ही शिक्षा है। आचार्य की यही कल्पना है। इस विद्यालय के निर्माण में सभी उपस्थित बंधुओं का सहयोग सहकार प्राप्त है । विद्यालय हर दिशा में प्रगति की ओर बढ़े यही मेरी भी कामना है। विद्य़ालय गोरखनाथ मन्दिर के पड़ोस में स्थित है-यह उसकी स्थिति महत्वपूर्ण है। हमें गोरखनाथ मन्दिर तथा महंत जी से बड़ी प्रेरणा मिलती है। हमारे वे संरक्षक हैं और हमें सदा उनका आर्शीवाद प्राप्त है। वह आज भी इस महोत्सव में उपस्थित होकर हमारा उत्साह बढ़ा रहे हैं-उनके चरणों में प्रणाम।
