Renukaji Vidya Niketan Senior Secondary School

Renukaji Vidya Niketan Senior Secondary School is over in Dadahu, which is in the Sirmaur district. We are quite close to the famous Renuka Lake, so we get a lot of people passing through the area, but the school itself is tucked away a bit. It’s a senior secondary school, so we have the older kids who are getting ready to finish up and maybe go off to college. The building is a few stories high and has a view of the surrounding hills. It’s a very peaceful place most of the time, except when the bell rings and everyone rushes out into the yard. We don't have much in the way of high-tech gadgets. The lab has the basic stuff for science experiments, and the library has the books the students need for their exams. The teachers here have been with us for a long time. They know the families in Dadahu well. We don't put out a lot of advertisements or try to look like a corporate school. We just provide a place for the local kids to study. In the rainy season, the clouds sit very low over the school, and everything feels a bit damp, but we just carry on with the day. It’s an honest place to go to school, and we do our best with what we have. Sometimes the lake tourists get lost and ask us for directions, which is always a bit funny.
