Bharathi Vidyalaya Senior Secondary School

Bharathi Vidyalaya Senior Secondary School in Kodanginayakkanpatty. It’s right here in Balakrishnapuram. Most days the sun is pretty hot on the playground. We have the kids coming in early from the nearby houses. It is a big enough place with walls around it. You can see the school from the road when you drive through. There are trees near the gates that give a bit of shade. In the mornings, the place is loud with voices, but it gets quiet once classes start. We have different rooms for the different years. Sometimes the fans make a clicking noise in the summer. It’s been here for a while now. The school is just part of the local scene here in Kodanginayakkanpatty. We have some desks that are a bit old and some that are newer. The teachers walk around between the buildings. It isn't a fancy place, just a regular school where people from around Balakrishnapuram send their kids. You’ll see the children walking home in groups when the final bell rings. We keep things running as best as we can every day. There is a lot of dust from the road sometimes. It’s just how things are around here. We open up early and close once everyone has left. It’s a basic setup but it works for the families in this part of the world. We don't have much in the way of big fancy stuff, just what we need to get through the school year.
