Lhuentse Primary School is located on the slope, overlooking the
Majestic Lhuentse Dzong and Kuri Chhu. Locally the place is widely
known as Tshompaling and therefore, even today majority of people
name the school as Tshompaling Primary School while the school has
long been registered as Lhuntse Primary School.
The school campus comprises an area of 11.23 acres above and
adjacent to Royal Guest House. The school was established in the year
1959, first as a Hindi Medium School and later introduced to English
Medium. It is the oldest of all schools in the Dzongkhag. In the early
eighties, it was upgraded to Junior High school and existed in the same grade until 1994. Later it was downgraded to Primary
school as the classes VII and VIII were shifted to Tangamchu, after the construction of MSS. However, due to the heavy pressure
of student enrollment in Tangmachu, being the one and only MSS in the Dzongkhag, this school having to share the
admission pressure was re-upgraded to LSS in the year 2000.
The school had boarding facility until 2003 but, with the completion of LhuentseHSS, Classes VII to VIII were shifted and as a result, this school was
downgraded to primary school in 2004 for the second time and is Primary School until today.
