Shri Vaishnav Upper Primary School

Our school, Shri Vaishnav Upper Primary School, sits right near the Pal Balaji Mandir in Hanuman Nagar. Being on Pal Road in Jodhpur means there is always a lot of traffic and people walking by. We are School No. 68, which is how some of the older folks around here still refer to us. The building is simple and has been around for some time. You can see the temple from our gate, which is a nice landmark for parents who are new to the area. Inside, things are pretty basic. We have the standard desks and chairs, and we try to keep the walls looking okay with charts the kids make. It’s not a high-tech facility, but it works for what we need. The teachers here are mostly locals who understand the neighborhood. In the mornings, you can hear the kids reciting their lessons, which carries out onto the street. Jodhpur gets really hot, so the fans are always going during the middle of the day. We don't spend money on big ads or glossy brochures. Most people find us because they live nearby or heard about us from a neighbor. We just focus on the basic subjects and making sure the kids behave themselves. It is a quiet life for the most part, except for when the bell rings for lunch. We're just a small part of the 342001 area. We try to keep things running smooth and the kids happy enough while they are here learning.
