About Shishubharati: The school?s objective has been to develop a sense of well-informed cultural pride in the students by creating the environment that fosters learning of Indian arts, customs, languages, religions, history, and current events. We are very proud to note that with the help of many dedicated volunteers, the community?s aspirations have far been exceeded. We have about 900 students and, over 100 teachers, many supporting staff, and numerous volunteers. We have language programs in Gujarati, Hindi, Tamil, Marathi, Telugu, Kannada, and Sindhi. Programs in other Indian languages are being set up. In addition, we offer free Yoga classes for adults. To supplement language and culture classes, Shishu Bharati has an excellent library with thousands of books. We also have extra-curricular activities such as: performances by artists, field trips, and occasionally outdoor games. Our Festival of India, 26th January celebrations, Culture Day, Language Day, Holi, Kite flying, and Graduation Day have become big events to look forward to. So far, conveniently Shishu Bharati has three locations, Lexington, MA; Walpole, MA; and Nashua, NH. Our school is a bridge between the cultures of America and India, where ideas can move freely from one side to another.
