The school's objective has been to develop a sense of well-informed cultural pride in the students by teaching them to Indian arts, customs, languages, religion, history, geography, and current events. We are very proud to note that with the help of very limited resources, the community's aspirations have far been exceeded.

We have over 450 students, over 60 teachers, and numerous volunteers. We have an evolving program in Indian culture, which is challenging because of the diverse backgrounds of teachers and students. We have language programs in Bengali, Gujarati, Hindi, Marathi, Sanskrit, Sindhi, Tamil, Telugu and Kannada.

In addition, we offer free Yoga classes for adults. To supplement language and culture classses, Shishu Bharati has a library and extra-curricular activities that include performances by artists, field trips, and outdoor games. Our opening day picnic, Diwali, Holi, and the annual function have become big events to look forward to.
