What sets us apart?
Growing spiritually
We exist to help students grow in their love for Jesus. While spiritual growth can’t be measured and quantified with numbers, we see it happening every day. It starts with our commitment to making Christ the center of all we do––not just the subject of a single Bible class. And it continues through our focus on the Bible as the sole guide for our beliefs and behavior as Protestant Christians. We invite you to visit our school and experience how our teachers and staff model their love for God and nurture it in our students.
Growing academically
Our goal is to develop Christians with wisdom, not just knowledge. So we’ve structured our academic program to put God first. We find that this results in students who grow academically at a higher rate than their peers in other schools. It really is true that when we “seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, all these things will be added to you” (Matthew 6:33). To learn more about the specific results of our school, schedule an Education Success Consult with our principal.
Growing physically
Making healthy choices is a way of honoring our bodies as the temple of the Holy Spirit (1 Corinthians 6:19). And plenty of research documents the importance of healthy bodies in developing healthy brains. So we include learning about taking care of our bodies with daily exercise, good sleep, healthy eating, and more. To see how we integrate wise lifestyle choices into our curricula, come visit our school.
Growing socially
Loving and serving others is part of God’s plan for each of us and something we practice daily. As we interact with each other here at school and as we practice service in our community, we are guided by Paul’s words, “Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love” (Ephesians 4:2). While we are not perfect, we are constantly aiming to be more Christ-like with each other and to serve our community. Come see how this influences our students with a visit to our school.
