School Notes
- School's mission is to graduate young men and women who think clearly and listen carefully with discernment and understanding, who reason persuasively and articulate precisely, who are capable of evaluating their entire range of experience in the light of the Scriptures.
- We aim to find them well prepared in all situations, possessing both information and the knowledge of how to use it.
- We desire our students be socially graceful and spiritually gracious, equipped with and understanding the tools of learning, desiring to grow in understanding, yet fully realizing the limitations and foolishness of the wisdom of this world.
- School Motto: Where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom. 2 Cor. 3:17
