Our kids have been here for 5 years now. A first rate education. This is a wonderful safe school. With caring teachers and staff. A school were God's word is embraced IIN each and every class. I also love the community service projects that we do. In a world that focuses on "self", It teaches our kids how to help serve, showing the true compassion and love of Christ.- J Hansen.

A caring, Christ-centered school that provides solid academics and a biblical foundation for life. In addition to being a parent of four students, I am also a proud alumni. I'm so grateful for the ministry of this school and the impact it has on young lives.
