Mission Statement: "Come and learn, go and share" Jesus said, "Let the children come to me. And do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these" (Luke 18:16). Incorporating the good news of Jesus in all it does, our school exists to equip children with the essential building blocks for this life and eternity.St. Paul's school welcomes children and their families to come to Jesus through this ministry of our congregation.
With the same welcoming attitude as our Savior, we welcome and encourage families of St. Paul's and our whole community to bring their children to Jesus here in our school. Therefore, children attending St. Paul's will daily hear the truths of God's inspired Word, the Bible. They will also be offered a variety of activities that will develop the whole child: spiritually, intellectually, physically, socially, emotionally, and creatively. We believe in providing a classroom that offers a warm, nurturing environment, with valuable educational experiences under the guidance of a well-trained staff.
