Sri Swami Chinna Jeeyar International School

Our school is located in Bajaj Colony, right in the Rajendra Nagar part of Raipur. It’s a busy neighborhood and we fit right in with the houses and small shops around here. Sri Swami Chinna Jeeyar International School isn't like those massive private institutions you see in movies. We have a regular building where kids come to learn their subjects and play during their breaks. The morning assembly is usually the loudest part of the day. You can hear the prayers and announcements from a block away. Chhattisgarh summers are no joke, so we try to keep the rooms as cool as possible for the students. The playground isn't huge, but the kids don't seem to mind when they’re running around during lunch. We go through a lot of chalk and notebooks every month. Most of us who work here have been around for quite some time, so we know the families in the area. It feels more like a community spot than a big organization. Sometimes the traffic outside gets stuck and the horns blare right into the classrooms, but we just keep teaching. Parents drop their kids off on scooters and chat for a minute before heading to work. It’s a very normal routine. We don't have high-end labs or anything too flashy, just standard classrooms and the teachers mostly know all the kids by name because it’s not that big of a place. It is just a straightforward school.
