School Notes Overview: |
The foremost goal of the Vaishnava Academy for Girls is to inspire young ladies between the ages of 12 to 18 to have firm faith and love for Krishna and a bona-fide spiritual master. The philosophical and spiritual position of VAG is based on the books and teachings of His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada. We work to encourage each student to recognize and develop her unique abilities and to enthusiastically offer those abilities in devotional service to Lord Krishna. We encourage our students to imbibe all good qualities, such as respect for authority, humility, tolerance, control of the mind and senses, detachment, simplicity, honesty, cleanliness, obedience, chastity, patience, and freedom from the bodily concept of life. The Vaishnava Academy for Girls aims to help students achieve a level of academic proficiency that will match or excel that offered by most Western educational institutions.
