Alok Public School

Our school is over in Padmarao Nagar, specifically on Street No 5 at Door No 6-1-283/5. It is a nice residential area in Hyderabad, so it is a bit quieter than the main commercial hubs. We have a good number of students who walk here from the nearby houses. The building fits right into the neighborhood. It is not some massive institution, but a local school where we know the names of the kids and their families. We have a small staff who handles everything from teaching to the administration work in the front office. On any given day, you will see teachers carrying stacks of books or students working on their projects. We don't use any fancy language to describe ourselves; we are just a place where kids come to get through their lessons. The classrooms have big windows to let in the air, though it still gets warm in the afternoons. We spend time making sure the playground area is safe and that the lessons are staying on schedule. Sometimes we have to deal with leaky pipes or a broken fan, just like any other building. It is a very normal, practical way to run a school. People around here seem to appreciate that we are just a steady part of the street. We keep the gates open in the morning and shut them tight in the evening.
