HOW WE STARTED
We began our education program on a small scale by placing the first children in our care in a school outside our Spiti valley in Yol, not far from Dharamsala, where the Dalai Lama lives in exile. Spiti itself was too remote and poor for an unknown society like ours to think of building a school straight away so when we had gained the confidence of parents and benefactors with the success of our work in Yol, we were able to undertake the construction of our own school in Spiti itself, in Rangrik village.
The first children were enrolled in kindergarten and primary class one. The school expanded by one class each year until 2006 when the oldest children reached class ten (age 16).
OUR MISSION
1. To preserve and promote Spitis peaceful Buddhist culture.
2. To offer young Spitians the best possible modern education and pass on to them our unique culture and tradition.
3. To especially encourage education for girls and women at all levels.
SOMETHING MORE THAN ACADEMIC…
We do not screen children for academic ability before admitting them. Through lessons inTibetan (Bhoti) language and training in our unique Buddhist culture we aim to produce not just exam-passers but also students who are well grounded and take pride in our own minority culture. One important expression of our culture is singing and dancing which our children are well-known. Our children's performances in previous years have much to do to revive the popularity of Spiti’s traditional song and dance and confidence in its truth and relevance at a time when the modern world and its prejudices were intruding more and more into our hitherto more remote valley.

2. To preserve and promote Spitis peaceful Buddhist culture.
