School Notes
- School Mascot: Rams
- Excellence - In all aspects of our school, our goal is to honor Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Jesus sets the standards for excellence and with Him as our example, we strive to offer academic programs proven by consistent SAT results, achievement testing and alumni successes in college and the work place.
- Service - Jesus is also the ultimate example of a Servant. Our desire is to provide opportunities that produce service-minded students who give back to their communities and churches. Through service projects and leadership opportunities, students learn responsibility, stewardship and about being a servant of Christ.
- Faith Through one-on-one student/teacher mentoring, bible classes, small groups, chapels, missions conferences and cross-grades prayer partners, our students receive opportunities to grow in their faith and practice what they learn in scripture.
- Commitment Our teachers are committed to offering their students personal academic, spiritual and emotional mentoring and support. Students interact with one another like family and make an effort to support one another in love. As a school, we are committed to offering our best in all aspects and in turn, expect the same of our students and teachers, all to the glory of God.
