Christian Education and Bible Curriculum

Proverbs 1:7 says, “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge.” The Bible offers the best guide for this life and the only hope for the life to come. Christian character development is an important aim of our school. Therefore, all students will hear about God and the saving grace of the Lord Jesus Christ in our program of studies and activities from both pastoral staff and faculty

Upper school parents and students are encouraged to log in to Quickschools to access grades, attendance and teacher contacts. Your access code will be emailed to you prior to the start of school.

Google Classroom will be utilized by all teachers in the Upper School in the event we need to completely move to virtual learning due to Covid-19. Your student will receive a specific code for their class and teacher.
