The Fence

Those of you who have been at the School recently will have noticed that a fence is coming up. This is in response to concerns for security and the realization that the School/Ashram boundary is very porous. A number of parents have called in to express their concern...

Once the whole fence is up, there will be very few points where one can come in/exit the School premises, and these will be manned by guards. There has to be a balance between security and building a fortress, and the sense of open space that MIS has enjoyed is something to value. I guess this sort of fence is some compromise in these times...

One can easily enter from Ashram gate or Mira Nursery without any problem. If one is well-dressed and speaks fluent english, then it is all the more easy. There has to be a valid id for parents to enter the school. It may sound impractical but it is true!

Thanks- I think something along these lines is already being thought of. The porosity of the Ashram/Mira boundary should decrease once the fence is constructed...
