Valley view High school

Yes the name sound like a school in a picturesque place...surrounded by a valley. But it aint! Fact is,it doesnt matter..if you can create a right environment and a right ecosystem which fosters learning, it doesnt matter whether the school is in Posh area or in the interiors of a poor community.

I mean how much we read online or in a bold article in a supplement of a daily newspaper or on a blog, like the one i am writing, the reality strikes when you,yourself be a part of the solution to the existing issues. When you go out and explore on your own. Thats what i did,saw,learn and experience at Valley View school.

So Let me introduce the super school to you all:






This is how our school looks like..

Valley view was founded by a Mrs Kulkarni AKA Madam Miss, our lovely principal. This was back in 1994-95. She was done teaching in all these convent schools and thats when the seed of entrepreneurship..starting you own school, where you can do what you want to do, apply your strategies and use your tremendous experience to ignite the young minds was sown.

But interesting thing is THE PLACE where she started the school. It was like a jungle back then,not a safe place, suburbs where the immigrants from other states occupied the land. The place is still well known for criminal activities goes on there.

She started the school with 8 students and today we have around 1200 students in our school.90% of them come from a low-income background. Most of the parents are uneducated and those who are, are the products of VALLEY view only.

Just to give an example, 4-5 teachers in the our school are the alma matter only. The girls who studied in one room school in a local community 14 years back are the class teachers in the very same school. That's what i call a success story!
Cheers to Valley view high school!
