It’s said that “the Joy is in the journey.” Such has been the story of Mother’s Public School. Many years ago, in 1991 to be precise, a young woman, a teacher, a mother, a wife, a daughter, had a dream. A dream to embark upon a journey to help working women leave their little ones a place where they could learn and play in a safe environment. Thus was born Prakrit, a daycare center cum pre-school. The rest, as they say, is history, in the midst of the changing landscape of school education in Odisha, over the last three decades. Armed with undying optimism and in the company of a small albeit growing team which relished every moment of this journey, Mrs. Poly led Prakrit to become Mother’s Public School, which has since expanded to multiple campuses. Today, Mother’s Public School has three campuses, over 3500 students, and is managed by a staff of 200 teachers and other professionals. And the journey continues. So does the joy!.
