Coordinates: 43°31′24″N 71°39′13″W / 43.52333°N 71.65361°W The Sant Bani School is an independent K-8 day school located in Sanbornton in the U.S. state of New Hampshire. The school was founded in 1973. It can enroll approximately 140 students from kindergarten through eighth grade. The school is accredited by the New England Association of Schools and Colleges, is a member of the National Association of Independent Schools, and is recognized by the IRS as a tax-exempt 501(c)3 organization.
Sant Bani School was founded in 1973 as an elementary school with six students, and rapidly grew to include a high school. Due to changing demographics, the high school closed in June 2015, and the School is focused on becoming a best-in-class K-8 program. Initially an outgrowth of Sant Bani Ashram, a spiritual retreat center, the School became an independent organization in 1983.
There are several possible interpretations from the ancient Sanskrit language. In its simplest translation, it means the "Song of the Spirit."
Sant Bani School is built on the belief that we have something to learn from everyone. Surrounded by nature, we create a diverse community where respect for all living things is central. Our mission is to provide a high-level, comprehensive educational experience while also recognizing the value of the spirit. With small classes, committed faculty, and an emphasis on collaboration and service to others, Sant Bani School teaches students to Be Good, Do Good, Be One.
