Progress High School

Progress High School has its home in Bandarwade, Sanquelim, Goa - 403505. It’s a high school that has been part of this community for quite some time. We aren't located in the busy tourist areas of Goa; Sanquelim is a more quiet, hardworking town, and our school fits right into that. The building is simple and has a lot of character from the years of use. We have several classrooms, a small library, and some outdoor space for the students. Most of the kids come from the Bandarwade area or other nearby parts of Sanquelim. We don't have a corporate office or use fancy language to talk about what we do. We are just a group of teachers and staff trying to help the students get their high school education. It’s a practical place. We focus on the subjects that matter and try to keep the kids on the right track. Sometimes the monsoon rains make things a bit difficult with damp walls or muddy paths, but we just deal with it like everyone else in Goa does. We don't have a lot of money for big advertisements, so we rely on the families in the 403505 area knowing who we are. It’s a steady, no-frills kind of school. We open the gates every morning and stay until the last student leaves in the afternoon. It’s just what we do here in Bandarwade, and we are happy to keep doing it for the local kids. (252 words)
