Malco Vidayala Matriculation Higher Secondary School

Our school is situated near Mettur Dam, in the Veerakkalpudur area. Malco Vidayala Matriculation Higher Secondary School is the name we use. It’s a unique spot because of the location. We get a bit of a breeze sometimes, which is nice when it’s hot outside. The school building has been here for a long time. It’s got that old-fashioned look to it. We don’t have a lot of modern glass and steel. It’s mostly just sturdy rooms and hallways. We have quite a few students, so it gets crowded during the lunch break. Most of the staff here have been part of the community for years. We know the families and we know the kids. It’s not a corporate environment at all. We just come in, do our teaching, and head home. There’s always something that needs fixing or a room that needs a bit of tidying up. We don’t spend much time worrying about how we look to the outside world. Our focus is just on what’s happening in the classrooms. We have the usual subjects and the usual exams. It’s a steady pace of life. People around Mettur Dam know us well enough that we don’t need to explain much. We just keep things running as best as we can, day after day. It’s a simple operation, really, and we like it that way. We just keep at it.
