Pearl Matric School

Pearl Matric School is tucked away on Puthugramam Road in the Therekalputhoor part of Nagercoil. It’s a familiar sight for the people living around here. We have a lot of local families who have been sending their kids to us for quite some time now. The street can get a bit crowded when the school day starts because it’s a residential area, but everyone is used to it. The building is a couple of stories high and we have the usual classrooms filled with desks and charts on the walls. In Nagercoil, we get a lot of rain, so we spend a fair amount of time keeping the hallways dry and making sure the kids stay inside when it pours. Our staff is mostly made up of people from the local community, so there is a lot of talking in the local dialect and everyone knows each other’s business. We just follow the matriculation syllabus and try to get through the books before the exams come around. There isn’t any big flashy stadium or anything, just a small ground where they do their exercises in the morning. It’s a simple, decent school that does its job without making a big fuss. You’ll see the kids walking home in their uniforms every evening, stopping at the local shops for a snack. It's just been around for long enough that people expect it to be there.
