Surya English Medium High School

Located on Puttaparthi Road in the Sai Nagar area, our school is a familiar sight for people in Dharmavaram. It’s a busy road, but once you step inside the gates, it feels a lot more like a place for learning. We’ve got the high school students here, so things get pretty serious when exam season rolls around. The building is a simple concrete structure, nothing too fancy to look at from the outside. Inside, the walls are painted a plain color and we have the usual charts for science and geography hanging up. We don’t have a massive budget for decorations, so we focus on keeping the place clean and functional for the students. The benches are a bit worn down from years of use, but they still hold up. Most of the teachers have been with us for a long time and they know the families in Sai Nagar quite well. During the break, you’ll see kids sitting on the steps eating their tiffin or playing a quick game of tag. We try to keep a balance between being strict with the lessons and letting the kids have a bit of fun when they can. It’s not a corporate institution with a million rules; it’s just a local school where we try to do right by the students. We deal with the daily ups and downs, from broken chalk to organizing the annual sports day. It’s a busy, rewarding life here in Dharmavaram.
