A caring environment where the students are accepted and respected as individuals. Each students receives individualized instruction, progresses at his/her own pace, and masters the subject matter before moving ahead. Students are taught Christian values. A excellent environment that recognizes the value of each person. The most important rule that is emphasized and taught is the Golden Rule---to treat others the way that you want them to treat you!
