Deepasri and her younger brother study
on scholarships at Isha Vidhya Dharmapuri.
Her parents are not educated – her father
is a two-wheeler mechanic and her mother
is a tailor, but both their incomes put
together are insufficient to fund the
education of the siblings.
This class topper is now in Grade 10 and
says that her teachers inspire her and have
helped build her self-confidence. Deepasri's
teachers are pleased with her performance,
especially her English teacher who finds her
a curious and promising learner, attentive in
class, with no qualms about asking
questions to clarify concepts and deepen her
understanding.
Deepasri is grateful for the opportunity she
got to develop new skills every day through
different activities, maintain good health with
Yoga, and also to exhibit her talent in sports.
She has won prizes in athletics at the school
and district levels and wants to pursue sports
at college too.
She aspires to study B.Sc. in Nursing –
inspired by the nurses whom she has seen at
work in hospitals.
