Middle School
Sixth through Eighth Grade
While early adolescence can be challenging, for young people as well as for their parents, our Team of Christian educators sees the great opportunities that the Lord has set before us. Middle Schoolers come to us as children, and, in three short years, leave as young adults. What happens in those three years often determines the path that each young adult will take from that point forward. Because teachers can profoundly impact young adolescents, we are humbled and privileged to be used by God to shape our future leaders in every aspect of their lives.
Our Middle School Team knows that God has called each of us to serve the needs of the students and families that He brings to our school. Under the Lord's guidance, we offer a Christ-centered program with high academic standards that focuses on nurturing each child as he or she grows "in wisdom and stature and in favor with God and man."(Luke 2:52).

Leadership Opportunities
We are cultivating next generation leaders. We believe that in order to learn and grow, students must do more than passively receive information. They must take an active role in learning and leading each other towards a better understanding of the current challenge
