Pathfinder High School

Being on the Main Road in Balasamudram means there is never a quiet moment at Pathfinder High School. Hanamkonda is a busy part of Warangal, and we are right in the thick of it. You can hear the buses and autos passing by all day long. The school has been sitting here for a long time, watching the road get busier every year. We are a high school, so we deal with older kids who are getting ready for their board exams. It’s a lot of work for them and for us too. The building is an old-fashioned one, with high ceilings and sturdy walls. We have a small playground, but it gets the job done when the kids need to run around. Most of the people working here live nearby, so we see each other at the market or the temple sometimes. It creates a nice connection with the parents. We don't really have a lot of fancy equipment or high-tech stuff, just the basic things you need to teach. Sometimes the rain in Warangal gets heavy and we have to watch out for leaks, but we fix them up as we go. It’s a very normal school life here. We follow the syllabus, have our lunch breaks, and wait for the final bell at the end of the day. It’s just how things are on the Main Road. We’ve been part of the 506001 community for ages now and we just keep on going. We just do our best to make sure the kids get through their books.
