Dr. J Frank Davis Public School

You can find us at Door No 4-47-7 in the Pedawaltair area of Visakhapatnam. The zip code is 530017 and it is a pretty settled part of the city. As a public school, we see kids coming in and out all day long. It starts early in the morning when the buses arrive and the parents drop their children off at the gate. The noise level is exactly what you would expect from a place with lots of students. We have classrooms for different grades and a small area where they play during their breaks. The teachers are usually busy grading papers or trying to keep the hallways organized. It is a very local sort of place. We know most of the families who live around Pedawaltair because their kids have been coming here for years. The building itself is older but it does the job. There is always someone cleaning something or fixing a desk. We don't have a huge staff, just enough people to make sure the kids are learning what they are supposed to. Sometimes we have events in the afternoon and then the whole street gets blocked with scooters. It is a basic school that serves the community here. We focus on the daily routine and making sure the bell rings on time every single period. It feels like a small family here most days. In the summer, we try to keep the rooms as cool as possible with the old ceiling fans we have. It is just a steady, simple school life for the local kids.
