Sacred Heart Matri Higher Secondary School Sholing

We are tucked into Devaraj Nagar, right off the Old Mahabalipuram Road in Sholinganallur. Being at No 5 makes it easy for folks to find us once they get off the main road. That OMR traffic is usually a headache, but once you turn into our street, it gets a little quieter. The school has a lot of history in this neighborhood. We have seen the area change from empty plots to all these big office buildings. Our building is older than most of the modern structures around here. It has high ceilings and the hallways are quite wide. We spend most of our time just managing the classes from morning until late afternoon. The kids are loud, especially when the final bell rings for the day. We have a playground that has seen a lot of use over the years. The grass does not grow too well because of all the feet running over it every day. We have a gatekeeper who knows most of the parents by sight. Inside, it is just desks, chairs, and cupboards full of paper. We do not use much fancy technology, just the usual teaching tools. It is a busy atmosphere. Every year we see a new batch of students come in and an old batch leave. It feels like a cycle that just keeps going. We just keep the lights on and the lessons moving forward. It is a practical place for families living around Sholinganallur who need a school nearby for their children.
