Chandra Digi School

If you’re looking for Chandra Digi School, you’ll find us in Jagtial. It’s a place where we’ve tried to bring in some newer ways of teaching, using screens and such, which is why the "Digi" is in the name. But at the end of the day, we’re still just a local school in a town where everyone knows each other. The building is situated in a spot that gets a fair amount of dust from the road, so we’re always fighting a losing battle with the cleaning. The kids here are like kids anywhere—some are eager to sit in front of the computers and others would rather be outside playing in the dirt. We have a small team of teachers who have to be pretty patient, especially when the internet goes out or the power cuts off, which happens more often than we’d like. We don’t have any big corporate backing or anything like that. It’s mostly just us trying to make sure these kids have a decent place to go every morning. The classrooms are filled with the sound of voices and the occasional hum of a projector. During the breaks, the smell of lunch boxes fills the halls. It’s a very normal, slightly messy environment, but we like it that way. We’re just part of the Jagtial community, doing what we can with what we have in this Jagityala area.
