The school announced holidays
345 Words
The school announced holidays for a week on account of the death of one of its students, Bathma Priya. Keerthi begged her parents to transfer her to some other school. Her parents didn’t consider her pleadings. They thought she wasn’t willing to study and she’s trying to escape her studies. “Mom I don’t want to study in that school. Please, let me study in the nearby school”, pleaded Keerthi. “No, the schools here just get money and don’t give quality education whereas the school you study now has a great reputation for sending several doctors Every year. We want you to study there or else you discontinue your studies” came the reply. “If that is the case I’ll discontinue,” Keerthi said angrily and went inside as she threw away the chair in which she was sitting. Keerthi thought that the school was money-minded. Yes, that’s true. That the school was just a business for those ten directors who administered the school.
People admit their daughters to that school hoping that they will become doctors or engineers. Yes, that school has a great reputation for sending more doctors or engineers every year but there are failures and low scorers too. If that year they get a hundred good-scored pupils, they get at least fifth failures and hundred plus low scorers. But they don’t reveal those remaining one hundred and fifty or two hundred in the banner. There will be colorful banners of that school around the city bearing the photos of toppers. One thing that parents mostly don’t understand is that a child in pursuit of knowledge will study properly even if they are admitted to a school with basic facilities or in a school without teachers. Everybody spends the same money on that school for their studies. But only a few students’ futures are well built and that’s because they utilize everything they get in that school.
