Youth for Seva
A ‘Community Development Programme’ was organized as a part of Social Responsibility by the school on 9th December, 2015. Taking part in such programmes helps students to empathize in order to bring about a positive change in the society and learn to be responsible citizens.
A team of students from classes 8 to 10 were taken to Mandal Parishad Pradhan Unnata Pathshala which is located in Gopulapuram, Shankarpally Mandal to distribute school bags, water bottles, notebooks and dictionaries to the students of the school.
The team from JHPS received a rousing welcome from the Mandal Education Officer Mr. Syed Akbar, the Sarpanch Smt. Konte Yadamma, the Chairman Mr. Cheera Guttaiah, the Headmaster Mr. D. Anjaiah, the teachers and the students of the school.
One of the teachers, in his speech compared the qualities of King Alexander with King Ashoka. Though, both wanted to conquer the world, King Ashoka chose to do it with love and kindness after the destructive Kalinga war. An eye opener for our students which also made them empathize with the students of the Government school, was an interview, in which the latter spoke about their travails in this remote area of the state. The students of JHPS were also taken aback when they came to know that the farmers in this area were still using the traditional methods of farming with limited water supply.
This programme was initiated by one of the parents Sri. Konda Srikanth, coordinator of ‘Youth for Seva Programme.’
SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY
In its endeavor to perform activities that directly advances its social responsibility goals, JHPS has time and again taken concrete steps to refine and improve the existing educational situation/facilities in a few schools that were in dire need of such facilities. JHPS fulfills the infrastructural requirements of many Zilla Parishad schools that are faced with impediments in the dissemination of knowledge due to the lack of appropriate furniture/facilities for the students. For more than 10 years the school has donated benches, desks, computer peripherals, desktops etc to improve the educational infrastructure in the Govt. and the Zila Parishad schools.
Balavikas Educational Society for Disabled children, Hindu Elementary School-Nandigama Village in Guntur, the Govt.High School in Medak district, The Zila Parishad High School in Pedakurapadu, The Zila Parishad High School in Nalgonda district, Geetanjali Model School in Jubilee Hills, Hyderabad, The Shankar Rural Development Foundation adopted by a Non Resident Indian Couple from Australia etc are the names of a few grateful recipients of the magnanimous gesture by the institution.
