Balaji National Public School

Balaji National Public School is right here in Magadi, specifically out on Bychapura Road. It is a bit of a drive to get to Venkataiahnapalya from the main town center, but most people know where it is once they get past Thagikuppe Post. We have been here for a while now, working out of this building every day from Monday to Saturday. Usually, the mornings start with the buses pulling in and the kids running around the yard before the bell rings. It gets quite dusty on the road sometimes, especially when the weather is dry, but the classrooms stay mostly okay. There are plenty of teachers who live nearby in Ramanagara and come in early to get things ready. We just do the usual school stuff, math and science and languages, and try to keep things moving along. Sometimes the power goes out, but we just open the windows and keep going with the lessons. It is a practical place. People around here seem to know us by name. It isn't a fancy setup, just a regular brick building with enough space for everyone to sit and learn. We have some trees in the back where the older kids hang out during their break. It feels like a normal part of the neighborhood, nothing too loud or flashy. Just a place where the local kids come to get through their grades and move on to whatever is next for them.
