For us a women is like a lamp lit at the threshold, brightening up both, the house inside as well as world outside. We aspire to see our students grow up to be these "Daheli-deep" (lamps at the threshold), so that they enlighten the world around them. In order to make women fulfill this role, we attempt to provide them relevant education of high quality through Gujarati Medium.

We aim at creating not isolated islands through individual development, but bridges that bind society together and thus bring gaps in various ways, like those between men and women, business and the household, the city and the village. Our primary concern is to develop confidence among the girl students helping them to realize that they are not the weaker half of society, but rather to mould themselves into humane, sincere and responsible citizens of the nation.

It is our heartfelt desire to see our students successfully meet the challenges lying ahead in their domestic world as well as broader and competitive modern world outside. We aim at crating competent role models for the country and to make the girl students believe that "The Sky is the Limit". The required overall development of the extra-curricular activities conducted in association with various social and cultural organizations, both Governmental and Non-Governmental. This in turn results in the adequate encouragement to obtain employment or better still, self employment through varied means.
