ABOUT US
Educating the mind without educating the heart is no education at all.
​
-Aristotle
We foster an environment where all students can love and serve Christ. We help them tap into their greatness and use it to positively impact their communities. Additionally, our Parent University which provides free quarterly workshops and seminars, gives parents helpful tools to aid in their child's academic success. We are called to minister to families, and are committed to making this world a better place, one family at a time.
