Sikh Heritage Education

Program Overview

Rooted in the values of equality, service, compassion, justice, and human dignity, the program provides students with a meaningful understanding of Sikh heritage and its relevance in the modern world.

What students learn:

Students explore the lives and teachings of the Sikh Gurus, Sikh values and ethics, historical milestones, community traditions, and the global Sikh experience. The program also introduces Sikh ceremonies, traditions, music, art, architecture, and seva (selfless service) as central components of Sikh identity and practice.
