Sagar Middle School

Sagar Middle School is located right in Nimdih, over in the Gamharia side of Jamshedpur. It is a place where local kids come to spend their day and we have been here for a good bit of time now. The building is simple and we try to keep it tidy, though with so many kids running around, there is always some dirt on the floor or marks on the walls. We focus on the middle school years because that is when kids really start growing up and changing. It is a noisy place during the morning break, but we have gotten used to it over the years. The teachers who work here are mostly from the surrounding areas, so they know the families quite well. We do not have any big fancy equipment or modern gadgets, just the usual desks and blackboards and old books. Life moves at its own pace here in the 831014 zip code. We open the gates early and stay until the very last kid goes home in the evening. Sometimes we have to fix a broken desk or repaint a small section of a wall when we finally get the chance on weekends. It is just a neighborhood school doing its bit for the community. We see the kids walking down the road every morning with their heavy bags. It is a familiar sight for everyone living around Gamharia. We just try to help them learn what they need.
