MORE ABOUT US Faiza’s Journey at Elite Open School When Roshan Learning Center’s collaboration with Elite Open School started in August 2019, Faiza was part of our first cohort of students. Her journey has been nothing short of inspiring. Faiza wasn’t always a morning person. “I couldn’t imagine waking up at 6 or 5,” she says. Now, she wakes up before 6 AM and gets ready for school in Roshan’s Elite Open School program. She has to leave early since she travels between one and two hours to get to the center. After she arrives, she goes straight to the class where she continues with English, math, civics, and science studies. In three years, she has changed, and things have changed, too, for her family.
