They call it a high school but some of the students are younger than teenagers.  There are about 30 students in total, all local Ladakhis.

Australian science teacher Ken Silburn had the students build model rockets and fire them.  I got out my Li-Cor quantum radiometer and let students and teachers use it to measure how much light is transmitted through various kinds of stones.  They found that quartz transmits the most light.

They served us tea and biscuits.  We gave each student a bag of NASA swag.  There were speeches and dances.  It was fun.
