PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
Sri Ganesh Secondary school was established in 1980 as a primary school and gradually it upgraded itself as a secondary school.

The school has proved itself as an example in the district. The students at the primary level are taught in English medium, which is unusual in a government school.

The school has aimed to teach up to class ten in English Medium in the coming days. And furthermore the school is equipped with the extra facilities such as computer education, library and lab for the use of students.

The school building was destroyed during a thunderstorm in 1993 and needed support for its reconstruction. The school was re-constructed with the support of the local community.

HeNN’s contribution was used to build a concrete roof for the new building.
