Sri Vidhya Shikshana Samsthe

This school is right on the Main Road in Hosur, over in the Mysore area. We’ve been operating here at 571617 for quite some time now. It’s a local place through and through. Most of the people working here grew up in the surrounding villages or towns nearby. We don't have a giant gate or a security guard in a fancy uniform. It’s just a gate that stays open for the kids to come in every morning. Sri Vidhya Shikshana Samsthe isn't the kind of place that wins architectural awards, but it has good solid walls and plenty of room for the students to sit. We spend a lot of our time just managing the basics—making sure the water is working and the books arrive on time. The Main Road can get a bit loud with the buses going by, but once you’re inside the classrooms, it’s mostly quiet enough to focus. We have a small office where we keep all the records in big metal cupboards. It’s a lot of manual work, writing things down by hand and keeping track of everyone. We aren't trying to be the most modern place in the world. We just want to provide a spot where children can come and learn what they need to know without a lot of distractions. It’s a modest life, but we’ve been part of this community for a long time.
