Immediately plans call for the building of a schoolhouse and dormitories for a primary and secondary school. There are at least twenty children of Society members who wish to attend school at New Vrndavana. Classes have already begun, and a schoolhouse is now under construction. The faculty of the New Vrndavana School includes one P.D, several MA's and several former teachers of elementary and secondary schools.

The curriculum includes courses in Krsna, study of the Vedic literature, Bhagavad-gita, Srimad-Bhagavatam, Caitanya-caritamrta, Brahma-samhita, the Upanisads and the basic sastras, as well as the basic courses in American history, American and British literature, mathematics, etc. That is, a firm basis of the traditional academic subjects, as well as practical training in horticulture, agriculture and Vedic scriptures, is being offered.
