Badmash, if you are from the batch of 1991 (first SLC batch in the post-Panchayat era), then we may be classmates. I was there for three years from 1986, then transferred to another school in class 9. Sobhit Lal taught us science in class 7. I think he was a good teacher, but sorry for those whose kanchat ko rau were plucked. I can only imagine the pain of it. Prasanna Manandhar taught us in some "extra" classes (covering the classes of absent teachers), and I fully agree that he was an excellent geometry teacher. It is not Surah Dangol, but Suraj Gopal Shrestha who taught sports and accounting. His brother Sunil Shrestha also used to teach science but resigned around 1987. Rita Yonjan taught us history. She often used to be in our bus, and also sometimes was seen being dropped off in a maroon (I think) Toyota Corolla. She also used to have the strongest smell of perfume. We used to think that she was the richest of all the teachers there for those two reasons. I really did not like her teaching, and was a victim of group pitai (ek dui jana le halla garda sabai le pitai khane) a few times. I did feel sorry to hear about her death though. I think she had asthma, indicated by her frequent coughing. Guragain was a pretty funny teacher tara pachi po thaha bho, most of his jokes were actually out of Bhairab Aryal ko Jaya Bhudi. Thapaliya was also a fun teacher. Tanka Sharma, who was the VP then, taught us Nepali...laamo ke ke guff garyo ni "aba bisaya bastu tira lagoo" bhanne. I was admitted to MAV in the year Dakipa committed suicide. I think he took a couple of "extra periods" teaching grammar. Bihana assembly ma "cover up..hands down" bhanera thul thulo swor ma karaeko samjhinchu. Four members of the Shrestha family from Lagan (Uttar Man and Pramila, and their daughters Prakala and Pratibha) used to teach there at one time. Pratibha, who taught us science, was the first one to quit, I think. She was a good teacher. I was not taught by the rest of her family. I do also recall the name of Lipika Karmacharya. I think she was a batch senior to us. Deepak Acharya was another good and funny English teacher. He was later promoted to VP. I wonder how he is now. He was known to be a heavy smoker and drinker, and frequent had his hands on his chest due to pain. Lau sathi ho, guff suff thapdai garu.
