'''Dabugaon Girls High School''' is a girls' residential school in [[Nabarangapur district|Nawrangpur]], the poorest of [[Odisha]]'s 30 districts in [[India]]. It is the only residential girls' high school in Nawrangpur, which has five Kanyashrams.

A month's [[stipend]] for the school, which has 170 resident students at Rs 325 per person, is Rs 55,000. The individual stipend covers food, two school uniforms, underwear and toiletry. A separate amount is paid for textbooks and writing materials but these are paid five to six months after a new session has begun. This creates a shortage of books, which hinders teaching. A student who fails to be promoted to the next class loses the school the entitlement to the individual stipend. Most girls fail in Science and Mathematics because of a shortage of teachers in those subjects. There is, however, a Cash Reward Scheme under which Rs 100,000 was disbursed by the government in 2002 to teachers, for improving their students' performance in scheduled area high schools and residential schools, to which the school belongs.
