Our philosophy

It is based on the principle that all truth is God's truth, and therefore our entire curriculum seeks to be grounded in and subject to the truth seen through the Word of God.

We prepare our teachers to view the world through a biblical lens. We seek to honor God and His Word, foster Christian character development, respect for authority, love, caring, unity, and a commitment to conflict resolution.

As a Christian school, we believe our primary task is to communicate truth and foster lifestyles that reflect Christian values. We teach that every human being is born outside of God and that only through faith in Jesus can we have a right relationship with God. We believe that as a school, we must work with parents to raise our children for the Lord.

Our philosophy

All truth is from God, so our curriculum is grounded in God's Word. We develop teachers with a biblical perspective, honoring God, fostering Christian character, respect, love, unity, and conflict resolution.

As a Christian school, we seek to transmit Christian truth and values. We teach that only through faith in Jesus can we have a relationship with God, and we work alongside parents to guide children in the path of the Lord.
