Government Higher Secondary School

Government Higher Secondary School is located at No 2 on the Old Mahabalipuram Road, also known as the IT Highway, in Thazambur. Even though we are right by one of the busiest roads in Chennai, the school itself feels like a different world once you step inside. We serve the higher secondary students in this fast-growing part of the city. The building is a standard multi-story structure that houses various classrooms for different subjects. Because we are on the IT corridor, the surroundings are always changing with new buildings going up, but our school stays pretty much the same. We have a lot of students coming in from Thazambur and other nearby areas. The noise from the highway is a constant hum in the background, but everyone is used to it by now. The facilities are basic, focusing on what is needed for the curriculum. We have a staff room where teachers keep their registers and lunch boxes. The courtyard is where everyone gathers for the morning assembly before heading to their respective rooms. It can get quite dusty because of all the construction nearby, so we spend a lot of time sweeping. The school follows a strict routine to make sure all the syllabus is covered before the final exams. It is just a hardworking school trying to provide a future for the local youth in a very busy part of Chennai. It is a simple place that has stood its ground while the city grew up around it.
