Shree B H Modi Vidya Mandir

We started this school here in Bharuch a long while ago. It's located on a road that gets quite busy with traffic, but once you walk through the main gates, it usually stays quiet enough for the kids to focus on their lessons. Most of our staff grew up right around here in the neighborhood, so we happen to know almost all the families by name. The building isn't anything fancy or modern. It’s just a series of classrooms and a playground that gets incredibly dusty when the summer heat hits us. We spend most of our days making sure the kids actually show up on time and stay on top of their schoolwork. It is hard work, to be honest. Sometimes the ceiling fans break down in the middle of a lesson or the school bell rings a few minutes too early, but we just fix it and keep going. Parents often stop by the small office to chat about their children's latest grades or just to say a quick hello on their way to the market. We don't have a huge team of people, just a few dedicated teachers who have been working here for years. We still keep most of our attendance registers updated by hand in those big green books. The morning prayer is really the only time the whole place feels completely together and still. After school finishes, the front gates get very crowded with bicycles and parents waiting on scooters.
