Alpha National School

You can find Alpha National School down at No.9 on Manandavadi Road. We are in the south part of Mysore, which is a busy area especially when the school day starts. The address is 570008, and if you’re local, you probably know the road well. It’s always filled with buses and rickshaws around eight in the morning. Our gates stay open for the rush and then we settle into the day. The building isn't anything extraordinary, just some classrooms and a playground that gets quite dusty when the kids are running around during recess. We spend a lot of our time making sure the children stay in their lines and follow the basic rules. The teachers are usually tired by the afternoon, but that’s just how it is in this profession. We have a few trees on the property that provide a little relief from the Mysore sun. In the office, there is always a stack of notebooks waiting to be checked. We don’t go for anything too flashy or modern. It’s just a regular school where kids come to learn their lessons. Most of our students live nearby, so we see their parents walking them to the gate every single morning. It’s a noisy, happy, and sometimes messy place to work, but we are used to it by now. It’s just how things go at No.9.
