Church & Community
We aim to build meaningful relationships with both the
children and the parents, taking heed to their needs and knowing theem on a
personal basis. In doing so, we hope to build a relationship between the
community and the church.
The Bible
Using the Bible as God's guide for our faith and life, we
will follow its' direction for the spiritual, intellectual, social/emotional
and physical development of each child.
Embracing Childhood
We value childhood and believe it should be celebrated and
held in safekeeping. We value each child as created in God's image and
will educate in a manner that affirms children and respects their individual
uniqueness.
Teaching/Curriculum
We believe that teaching by example is vital. We will
model and teach Christian faith principles and biblical studies as well as
intellectual studies. We value the importance of a curriculum that follows
our mission statement; reflecting God's love and strengthening their
development through a focus on the whole child.
Parents
Because God has given parents responsibility for the nurture
and training of their children, we will help them fulfill this calling in
partnership with the church.
Gentleness
Jesus demonstrated gentleness when he said, "Let the
children come to me." Even when the disciples were quick to turn the
children away, Jesus accepted them with open arms. We value the
importance of gentleness and commit to teaching and correcting children in a
gentle manner.
