The school started in 1996 with 19 kindergarteners from the local villages. The school is in conformity with the syllabus of the CBSE Board. The school will be upgraded to secondary level by adding a new class each year. Presently those 19 kindergarteners are in eighth grade and will be first graduates of the school in 2007. Currently there are 320 students and 14 teachers (ten of them are sannyasinis of the Math). There is a hostel for 42 girls. The school is free upto fourth grade including lunch. After that, about 60% of the students pay tuition of 42 rupees per month which partially supports the education of 40% of the needy students. The school needs money for providing lunch for all poor students and minimum three teachers in the area of science and mathematics.
Shamayita Convent School aims to provide modern, value-added education to the girls in general (irrespective of their cast and religion) with special emphasis to the local poor and talented girls, free of cost.
Shamayita Math is created by Revered Prabhuji. The school is his brain child. The school is conducted and regulated by the sannyasinis of Shamayita Math.
