Shah Kms High School

Shah Kms High School is located on Bander Road in Valsad. The location is quite close to the water, so you can sometimes feel the breeze if it’s a good day. It is an older building that has seen a lot of students come and go over the years. We mostly take in kids from the nearby neighborhoods. The school day is pretty standard. We start with assembly and then move into the classrooms. There is a lot of writing on chalkboards and flipping through textbooks. Bander Road is a busy place, so there is always some noise from the trucks and vehicles going by outside. Our staff is mostly local people who have been teaching for a long time. We don't have a big fancy office; it's just a desk with piles of papers and a fan that clicks. The students spend their time studying for exams because that is what everyone expects. During the breaks, they run around in the courtyard. It’s a very normal school environment without any of the high-tech stuff you see in big cities. We keep things simple here. If a student is struggling, they just stay back and talk to a teacher. The gate is usually open for parents to come in and ask questions. We have been part of Valsad for a long time and we just continue with the same work every day. It is just how things have always been here for us.
