Why have a christian school?
Our mission is to partner with the home and church to nurture children into a relationship with God through Jesus Christ. An education that focuses on developing the whole child is of great value today. This is why we will strive to provide a Christ-centered education, which will encourage students spiritually, intellectually, emotionally, socially and physically. We will also work to be a light in our community, through the Spirit, by providing a loving school environment known for harmony, peace, and safety.
what grades are offered?
We currently have 23 children attending our school, from grades Primary to Grade 12.
What curriculum, classes, and extracurriculars are offered?
We mainly use the Abeka Curriculum which promotes a high standard of academic achievement. We also offer adapted curriculum to meet each students individual learning needs. Physical Education classes are taught twice a week, along with Art and Music classes weekly.
As a small private school, our sports options are somewhat limited. If your student is interested in participating in track and field or table tennis, we currently have teams participating. If your student is more interested in team sports (volleyball, soccer, basketball), we have been able to enter into cooperative agreements with other local schools in the past - it may be possible.
What is the student to adult ratio?
The student to adult ratio is 7:1. Daily, we have both Elementary and Senior teachers present, along with one volunteer; this provides the necessary assistance for each student’s learning needs.
*Volunteers have been screened with a criminal record test and child abuse registry check.
