Gachirampara High School

Our school is located in Jayanagar 5th Block, right on the 11th Main road. We are up on the second floor of the building there. Jayanagar is a busy place, and our school is right in the middle of all that activity. We have been here for a while, teaching the high school students who come in from all over the south of the city. The stairs can be a bit steep when you are carrying a stack of notebooks, but you get used to it after the first week. Every morning, the rooms fill up with students. It gets loud when the classes change over, as you can imagine. We focus on the regular curriculum, making sure the syllabus is covered before the exams start. The staff room is usually crowded with tea cups and half-corrected papers. We do not have much room for frills. It is a practical place. We spend a lot of time talking to parents about their children's progress. Sometimes the fans overhead make a clicking noise, but we just ignore it. The area outside has plenty of trees, so the view from the windows is actually quite nice for a city school. We just try to get through the lessons and make sure everyone understands the day's work. It is a lot of routine, but we enjoy the rhythm of the school year. We are just a group of teachers trying to do our best for the students who come through our doors.
