Woodridge High School

Woodridge High School is out at Gut No 12 in Anand Vihar, which is part of the Aurangabad Ho area. It’s a bit further out than some of the schools in the center of the city, so it feels a little more open and less cramped. The high school years are always a bit intense, and you can see that on the faces of the older students as they walk to their classes. They’re usually carrying heavy bags full of books and talking about their latest assignments. The campus has a few different buildings, and we try to keep the trees and plants growing to give the place some life. It’s a dusty part of the state, so keeping everything clean is a constant job. The classrooms have big windows to let in the light, but we have to shut them when it gets too windy. We have a science lab and a place for computers, though they aren't the newest models around. The teachers are a practical group of people who just want to get through the syllabus and make sure the kids are ready for their board exams. In the afternoons, you’ll see groups of friends hanging out near the cycles and scooters, not really wanting to go home just yet. It’s a typical high school experience, with all the usual noise and daily puzzles we have to solve. We’ve been part of this Aurangabad community for quite some time now.
