Holy Mother School

Holy Mother School is an English medium school in Nashik, Maharashtra. We are a private school established in 2004 by Joshua and Heera Pritikin. My wife runs the school, and I funded it out of my own savings. It is breaking even this year.

We anticipate a small OLPC trial in June 2008. We are working on an Internet connection. We already have a machine to serve as a school server.

We would love to make the laptops child owned but

  • There are 50 students in 1st grade and older.
  • Students pay about 70 USD per year in tuition.

I am paying for 10-15 laptops to develop interest. The families may be able to afford laptops at half price.

  • Children and staff

  • Cultural program within one of the classrooms

  • Traditional Indian dance
