  • We seek to form in each child a concern for each other and for all people of whatever race, creed, or color, as brothers and sisters in the Lord.
  • We recognize the need for discipline in the early years, especially until the time each child has grown to self-discipline and self-direction.
  • We seek continually to maintain a high quality of education in every area, and thus will make demands on all students to maintain such educational standards.
  • And most importantly, we teach the children values for life and eternity as we seek to develop their talents to the fullest and lead them to live according to the Good Nes of Christ - the Gospel.
