School Philosophy and Mission
"Quality Education:
Provide a comprehensive curriculum built around a challenging academic program including subject matter in the academic areas, the arts, physical education, character education, Bible instruction, and technology which inspires children to become life-long learners and equips them with the skills necessary to adapt to an ever changing world.
Integrate varied teaching methods with traditional approaches to inspire learning, instill confidence, and promote a desire to succeed.
Offer a robust after school program in affiliation with the Grace Academy of Fine Arts (GAFA) offering instruction in art, ballet, piano, organ, voice, woodwinds, trumpet, violin, drum
ercussion and music composition.
Role of Religion:
Embrace the Christian faith and its principles in our corporate life.
Offer daily classroom prayers, short devotions, a Bible curriculum, and a weekly Chapel service are a normal part of daily operations.
Emphasize worship as a basic human need, while remaining sensitive to the diverse religious traditions of our students.
Role of Discipline:
Foster happy functioning individuals responsible for their own behavior.
Accentuate positive behavior, provide redirection and/or choices, set realistic limits, encourage expression of feelings, and listen carefully to what children are saying.
Incorporate Christian principles in daily character education.
Integrate character education into all aspects of discipline

Montessori? Waldorf? Play-based?
What school type is right for your child? Is one model better than another? What does the research say?

Today's “Preschool’s Out” Activity
Trace around your child's foot, with shoe on, on a piece of white construction paper or card stock. Have child cut out the shoe print and add a spooky face. Glue it to a popsicle stick and you have a ghost stick puppet!
