Dr. Mark Teseniar, our super Humanities teacher, had the privilege of visiting India on a Fulbright Scholarship this summer, in particular the village of Maganurpatti, the home village of a former student's family. Vasanth K., Dr. Teseniar's former student, is now a sophomore at Vanderbilt University and spends his summers in India trying to improve educational opportunities for young people.  He is truly an inspiration and has raised funds to provide the village school with new classroom space, toilet facilities, recreation fields, landscaping, and a computer lab. In this picture, Dr. Teseniar sits with students who have benefited from Vasanth's vision and generosity. Read about Vasanth's vision at http://www.tnisf.org/
