'''Kendriya Vidyalaya, Ottapalam'''<ref>{{cite web |url=http://kvottapalam.nic.in/ |title=Kendriya Vidyalaya Ottapalam |publisher=KV Ottapalam |date=2013-11-08 |accessdate=2014-03-12 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160109193218/http://kvottapalam.nic.in/ |archive-date=9 January 2016 |url-status=dead }}</ref> is a school in [[Ottapalam]], [[Kerala]], [[India]] which offers education. Founded in 1986 with the support of Sri [[K. R. Narayanan]], then member of parliament from [[Ottapalam]]. The school was started with less than 120 students in a rented premise at [[Kanniampuram]].<br />
<br />
In 1992, the School shifted to a {{convert|16|acre|m2|sing=on}} campus in Palappuram - where there was space for separate staff quarters, the school building, and 3 large playgrounds.<br />
<br />
The then [[Vice President of India|Vice President]] (and later the [[President of India|President]] of the [[India|Republic of India]]), [[K.R. Narayanan]], had inaugurated the K.V. Ottapalam building in 1992. He and his security team of "Black-cats" arrived in a fleet of helicopters, which landed on the nearby NSS College Ground.<br />
<br />
The vidyalaya has been selected as a Model [[Kendriya Vidyalaya]] in the year 2000–2001.<br />
<br />

The school is situated in a picturesque campus in close proximity to the [[Bharathapuzha]] river, approximately 5&nbsp;km from Ottapalam town. It has two main playgrounds. The building is of traditional Kerala style architecture, with a nadumuttam (courtyard) where the morning assembly is held. The school library has been moved to a new and bigger building.<br />
<br />
