Core Values
CHRIST: Character, Humility, Respect, Integrity, Service, Testimony

 Philosophy of Education:
We believe God has entrusted children to parents, who in turn make choices about the education those children receive. Therefore, we understand our proper role as Christian school educators to be one of support for the homes and churches those children come from, and that as such, we:

• can help parents in the training of the children, but can not replace them;
• need to partner with parents who are actively involved in the life of the school, their church, and their children;
• need to design a curriculum and create an environment which will help students to become more Godly as they seek to increase in knowledge, understanding and wisdom;
• need to respect all students as part of God's creation, regardless of race, gender, or ethnic origin;
• need to use the Bible as our primary source for all courses, policies, and procedures;
• must strive to be Godly role-models;
• must never underestimate the capability of a student;
• must have servant hearts;
• must work to discern the learning style of all our students, and use methods which enable all students to learn;
• recognize the value of hands-on, practical applications of the material taught;
• need to keep focused on the mission and vision of the school;
• need to keep current with the latest research in education, and thus model lifelong learning;
• will set high standards for academics, behavior, and spiritual growth, and will provide the necessary support to reach those standards;
• are accountable to the families and churches we serve;
• are organized in such a way that parents and teachers are a part of the decision making process;
• need to be organized in such a way that a safe and nurturing environment is maintained

 Mission/Vision Statement:

MISSION: To equip children with a biblical and intellectual foundation through examining all subject areas and life issues from a biblical worldview.

 Statement of Faith:
We Believe:
• In One God, the Creator and Sustainer of the universe, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
• In the divine inspiration, infallibility and final authority of the Bible as the Word of God.
• In the uniqueness of man, by virtue of his special creation in God's image and his responsibility to understand and master the world to the glory of God.
• In the unique deity of the Lord Jesus Christ, the incarnate, Virgin-born Son of God.
• In the representative and substitutionary death of our Lord Jesus Christ as the necessary atonement for our sins.
• In the power of the Holy Spirit in the work of regeneration, and His continuing work in the heart of the believer.
• In the resurrection of the crucified body of our Lord and that blessed hope, His personal return.
• In the bodily resurrection of the just and the unjust, the everlasting blessedness of the saved and the everlasting punishment of the lost.
• In the spiritual unity of believers in our Lord Jesus Christ.
• In the heterosexual marriage relationship as the only God-ordained family system.
