Katurva Gandhi Girls School Morena

Our school is over in Barisha, at 41 Biren Roy Road East. It’s a girls' school and it’s situated in a part of town that feels a bit more like a neighborhood than the city center. The building is fairly simple and we have a gate that stays shut most of the day to keep things quiet. We have several classrooms for the different grades. It’s a very ordinary place, nothing fancy about it. We don't have a big website or a social media page. We just have our sign out front and the word of mouth from local families. The teachers come in every day and get to work with the students. We focus on the lessons and making sure the girls are keeping up with their studies. There is a small yard where the students can stand during their lunch break, but it’s not very big. We have the usual problems like old furniture and fans that need a bit of oil now and then. It’s just a practical place for learning. Most of the girls walk to school from the nearby houses. We know many of the parents by name because they’ve lived here for generations. It isn’t a corporate school with a big budget. We just use what we have to get through the school year. It’s a steady, everyday kind of environment for everyone involved.
