VISION STATEMENT
We, the sisters of the Congregation of Jesus and Mary serving India since
1842, commit ourselves to the promotion of a more just and humane society
in our country. The inspiration provided by our Foundress St. Claudine
Thevenet, since 1818, continues to strengthen this commitment.
In the India of today, the pressures of casteism, communalism, poverty
and exploitative structures make it imperative to equip our students not
only with intellectual skills but also with a set of attitudes imbued
with social, moral and spiritual values.
Our commitment to this kind of education is made in order to serve
specifically the young and among them, the poor. We will also seek to
conscientize them of their rights and struggle with them in the face of
ongoing oppression and exploitation. |

We invite our collaborators, students and parents to work with us in
realizing this challenging vision of bringing about a new India.
