Khawrang High School

Khawrang High School is found at 4 Chandi Ghosh Road, which is right in the Regent Park neighborhood. Being a high school, we have the older students here, from the surrounding areas of Kolkata. The building is a bit bigger than the primary schools nearby, with a couple of floors to accommodate everyone. The stairs are quite narrow, so it gets crowded when the bell rings and everyone tries to move at once between classes. We have a science lab that has some old glass jars and basic equipment, though it’s not very modern at all. The classrooms have rows of benches and large blackboards that we use every day. You can hear the teachers' voices echoing through the corridors during lessons. Outside, Chandi Ghosh Road is usually busy with rickshaws and people going about their business. We don't have a proper sports field, so the kids usually just hang out in the common area or the street outside after school is over. The staff room is always full of notebooks that need grading and some old cupboards for files. We have a few fans in each room, but they don't do much when the humidity is really high in the summer. It's a place where we just focus on getting the students ready for their board exams. We don't have any special facilities, just the basic stuff you need to run a school. It's a very straightforward, local institution where everyone knows each other well enough.
