Karnataka Teacher Takes Up the Role of Driver to Ensure Students Don't Dropout

-

In order to make sure students keep coming to the school, Rajaram, a teacher from Baraali village, Karnataka, India, teaching in Baraali Government Higher Primary School stepped up and bought a bus with the help of alumni of the school.

Rajaram noticed that students had started dropping out since there were no roads between the homes of the students and the school. The Students had to walk around 6 km every day through the forest area. Parents concerned about the safety of children stopped sending them to school as a result of which more and more students started to drop out. 

Rajaram then reached out to Vijay Hegde and Ganesh Shetty and all three chipped in money to buy the bus but soon realized that hiring a bus driver will take a huge toll on the school's budget. Hiring a driver will require at least 7,000 INR per month which the school could not afford. 

So now, Rajaram is not only a science and mathematics teacher but also plays the crucial role of picking and dropping children safely, as a result of which, the school strength has increased from 50 to 90.
