Dear Friends,
A reminder from last week!
It is our Spring Festival on April 9th at 4:30 p.m. where we showcase the Vedic program. Another photo op day! April 9th is also the Vedic Social for our Senior class!

Some more Alumni news - scroll down for details. Take a look at photos from A Day at YICG

We spent some time in Vedic 5 on 'I Believe' Statements by our high school students. Do enjoy the variety of responses!! We are working on developing Arjuna's work habits of goal setting and focus! Every student will develop their own mission statement in life, keeping in mind the teachings of the Bhagavad Gita of approaching the ups and downs of life with Equanimity.

We love sharing the successes of our students so please send us links that give us news and we will communicate through this newsletter and on Facebook.

 

Please join our Facebook fan page for news and interesting articles.

Best Wishes, 

 Rathi Raja (on fb)
