The founders therefore set out to start a school that would would have the following academic goals:
1. A school that would provide educational opportunities that will meet the unique academic, social and emotional needs of all students.
2. A school where all students will achieve academic success by providing relevant interventions for the students who are challenged.
3. A school where students will engage in activities that promote higher level thinking skills and develop gifts for real world application.
4. A school with adequate facilities and staff that will motivate students to reach their potential and become successful contributing members of the society.
5. A school that will help children grow up loving Christ passionately and serving each other sacrificially. Our Curriculum
