We love Jesus, we love our students, and we would love to meet YOU and share more about our wonderful school! In a world of trials and tribulations, we hold fast to our God and his promises, and seek to teach our students to write his word on their hearts, and to profess and LIVE out their lives walking with the Lord. We seek to train up thinkers and doers - people who not only KNOW information, but what they ought to DO with it. That often means allowing a student to struggle and wrestle with material and ideas and not rescuing them from challenge. In the end, these young people become prepared to face and tackle hard things to respond and rise up to the calling God has on their lives.
Our school operates in "studios," or buildings/wings, for each division, with separate studios for elementary, middle school, and high school students. Within these studios, students experience student-led, teacher-facilitated, individual, and collaborative learning with a goal of mastery of learning, not simply proficiency. Technology is utilized intentionally and regularly for classwork, research, and assignments, however, it's use is also healthily balanced with "pen and paper" methods, events, field trips/travel, discussions, and other valuable tools. Ultimately, we approach every learning opportunity, every project, every day, from a boldly and distinctly Christian worldview.
