through various performances by the students. The program included skits,
songs, dances, and the presentation of Swami Vivekananda's thoughts, all of
which encapsulated the spirit of brotherhood. A highlight of the event was the

Religions in Chicago, delivered by a student, which moved the audience.
The
hall was beautifully decorated to reflect the theme of brotherhood and unity in
diversity, with both students and parents involved in the preparations. The

its unwavering commitment for upholding the values propagated by Swami
Vivekananda. They emphasized the importance of maintaining the spirit of
