Our goal is to provide quality, research-based programs that prepare and inspire each child to become a lifelong learner. The curriculum designed provides strong foundational skills necessary for academic achievement and provides faith-based experiences that engage students to live their Christian faith by serving others.

Technology

All classrooms are equipped with student technology devices (I-Pads for K-2 and Chromebooks for 3-5) as well as smartboards to create an engaging learning environment. Our curriculum integrates Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) into every classroom. Each class visits our computer lab weekly to learn important computer-based skills as well as a strong understanding of how to safely navigate our modern digital environment.
