• We believe that God is the source of all true knowledge.  We seek to provide a nurturing, Christ-centered environment where students can choose to grow into a meaningful relationship with Christ.
• We believe in following Jesus in all facets of life; we believe students should give everything to Him and take everything from Him--forgiveness, perfection, power, life itself.
• We believe following Jesus manifests itself in spiritual disciplines:
  -Living in Grace
  -Experiencing Spiritual Growth through Bible Study and Prayer
  -Participating in a Small Group
  -Using Spiritual Gifts in His Service
  -Giving as Stewards 
• Within this atmosphere, we recognize and respect the uniqueness, dignity, and value of each person and strive to meet the educational needs of students by using a variety of teaching methods.
• We believe opportunities should be provided for students to develop and use a broad range of thinking skills in their educational endeavors and as they relate to the world in which they live.
• In order to develop responsible citizens for now and eternity, we encourage cooperation among home, school, church, and community.
