School Notes
- At Ambleside, we believe that real education is much more than the assimilation of facts, figures, and skills. It is rather a lifelong process of ones mind feeding on ideas expressed through Gods creation, great works of math, art, music, science and other disciplines, and in living books.
- Weencourage students tofreely thinkfor themselves: to wonder, to explore, to discover, to ask why and how, to gain the courage of their informed convictions.
- Children who receive a living education grow in relationship with the knowledge of God, man, and the universe. They become people who give back to society, care for their kin, love their neighbors, and cultivate a rich intellectual life.
- We worship as community and pray as individuals with enthusiasm, trust, courage and humility.
