Patidar High Secondary School

Patidar High Secondary School is located on Ambika Dham Deviji Road in Dhar. Most people in the area know exactly where we are because the road is a main path for those going to the temple or the shops. The building we use is quite sturdy, though you can see some age in the worn-down steps and the marks on the walls. We have many students here who are in their final years of school. They are usually very focused on their exams and what they will do after they leave us. We provide them with the basics they need, like a desk to sit at and a teacher to explain the books. The ceiling fans stay on for most of the day to keep the air moving. During the rainy months, the building gets a bit damp, but we just open up the windows to let it air out. The staff room is where we sit to grade papers and talk about which students might need a little extra help. We do not use any corporate language here; we are just regular people doing a job. The courtyard is the main gathering spot where everyone meets for prayers in the morning. It can get a bit dusty when the wind blows through Dhar, but it is our space. The address is 454001, and we have become a fixture on Deviji Road over the decades.
