Presbyterian School was founded on the premise that children should be educated in an environment that integrates the three major institutions in their lives: the Family, the School, and the Church.
Dedicated to strengthening the lives of children and their families, the School provides an educational program of the highest quality in a Christian environment.
Students are respected and treated as individuals of worth, and are encouraged to develop a sense of responsibility in relation to God, to themselves, to others, to their environment and to the world in which they live. At Presbyterian School, children are given the opportunity to develop to their fullest potential-intellectually, physically, emotionally, socially and spiritually-in a supportive yet challenging environment.
The school`s curriculum is developmentally appropriate, respecting the individual learning styles and capabilities of each child, and accommodates children`s different talents and rates of growth and development.

School Notes
The founding purpose of Presbyterian School, established in
1989, was and remains to provide families with a "Christ-centered
learning environment in which the total family will experience
support and growth." For more than two decades, Presbyterian
School has fostered the unique and wonderful mixture of intellect,
emotion, talent, and spirit in children while challenging them to
become caring, compassionate citizens of their School, family,
community, and world. That children should be educated in an
environment integrating the three major institutions in their lives
(the Family, the School, and the Church) is
counter-cultural today. However, that was the simple and
essential message of the School at its founding, and this mission
still guides us in powerful ways here in the first part of the 21st
Century.
Anchored in this mission, children at Presbyterian School
develop to their fullest potential - intellectually, physically,
emotionally, socially, and spiritually - in a supportive and
challenging environment. Students are treated as individuals
of worth and are encouraged to develop a sense of responsibility in
relation to God, to others, to the world in which they live, and,
ultimately, to themselves.
The School's program is rooted in 21st Century skills and
habits of mind that appeal to a diversity of learners who acquire
these skills and habits in different ways and at different
rates. Talented and caring teachers regularly assess each
child's development and, drawing upon their own acumen and
experiences, employ those techniques most likely to touch and
inspire individual learners.
Parents are vital to any child`s development, so Presbyterian
School offers parent education programs designed to help parents
understand the 21st Century`s exciting educational milieu. At
the same time and using Christian principles, the School`s programs
also support parents through the moral and spiritual dilemmas
facing families today as well as with timeless issues faced by all
parents throughout the ages.
Finally, Presbyterian School seeks to help its students
understand and believe, at the simplest yet deepest level, that God
loves them unconditionally. Children of all races, ethnic
groups, and religious backgrounds are welcome and will be
encouraged to develop their spiritual identities and their love of
God in a Christ-centered environment.We are a school that believes
in the clarity of our mission, identity, and vision and that who we
are and what we do is captured succinctly and purposefully in the
phrase: Confidence in every Child. Our students will come
to anticipate-even welcome-the next challenge with energy, acuity,
and confidence. Along the way each will come to appreciate
that, by accepting the challenges of going too far-to paraphrase
T.S. Eliot-one discovers how very far one can go.
Presbyterian School is such a warm and welcoming community with a stellar educational program grounded in Christian principles. We feel incredibly lucky to be part of this community of dedicated educators and staff, and caring, informed and supportive parents.
