    1: This is the name of one of the best schools in Karnataka, India. Candor is derived from the Latin word 'candere' which means 'to shine'. It is the first certified ‘Green School’ in the whole country of India with a world class campus. The motto that the students follow in Candor is ‘Preparing for Life’. At Candor, the students are referred to as ‘Candorians’. ‘Candorians’ are very proud of their school as they emphasise on skill-based learning, cognitive thinking, ethical behaviour, moral integrity, experiential learning, leadership and individuality. Some ‘Candorians’ are concerned about teachers leaving and joining a lot, while others question the high school fees though they rationalize that every school has its pros and cons. However, although it is a small school in population, there are still all types of people here so common niches join up to be squads or besties. Everyone who graduated from this school leaves with awesome memories and get accepted into reputed universities (especially abroad) since this is the school best at delivering opportunities despite what “outsiders” think.

      * e.g.,  ... dude : “Preparing Us for Life, Oh Candor School”
