Hari Shankar Singh Public School

Hari Shankar Singh Public School sits right on the 28 National Highways in Gopalganj. If you’re driving past, you can’t really miss it because of all the yellow buses and the kids hanging around the gate in the mornings. Being near the highway means there’s always a lot of noise from the trucks and traffic, but inside the boundary wall, it feels a bit more like a proper school. We’ve got some open space where the students play when the sun isn't too hot. The buildings are pretty standard, painted a light color that gets a bit dusty from the road. Inside, the rooms have wooden benches and blackboards. We spend our mornings checking the registers and making sure the teachers are in their spots. It’s a lot of management, honestly. In the 841428 area, people know us as just another local school where families send their children. We don't have a lot of extra bells and whistles. It’s just classrooms, a small office, and a place for the staff to eat lunch. During the rainy season, the yard gets a bit muddy, so we have to watch where everyone walks. We try to keep the place looking decent for the visitors who come by. It’s just a regular part of the neighborhood here in Gopalganj, doing our bit every day without much fuss. We open the gates early and stay until the last bus leaves. It's a long day but it's what we do.
