Welcome

We strive to instruct our students in a Christian environment that is nurturing to both their minds and souls. Our school is a haven where children can learn under a dedicated staff in the presence of the Holy Spirit.

"Education is not limited to the classroom or school building, but involves the family and community as well as professional educators. Education is a process that starts at birth and lasts a lifetime. It involves the accumulation of knowledge, but more importantly involves personal and spiritual development. We teach and encourage an appetite for learning and the tools to continually seek out new knowledge. We must also continually look to the future and realize that the world is changing and becoming more complex, and as a result, requires new approaches to education." ~L. Pamela Vaiana, Principal
