Sixth grade in Bangalore is shaped by academic competition for the nations best schools. Bangalore is the fastest growing city in India and is the Silicon Valley or the technology center for the country. Schools are driven by national exams in the same way as they were when India was part of the British Empire. Although students love cricket and music, since there is such competition on these examinations, there is little time. The city is booming with business and opportunities for jobs, especially technology support for American companies. The people are mostly Hindus are students are in conflict between old values, such as arranged marriage and castes, and modern values shaped by our technologically connected world. Indian children envy the freedom and fun enjoyed by American school children.
