Diversity
We aspire to be an educational institution where all students flourish and have equal opportunity for success. We seek to treat all people with love, respect, dignity, and fairness. We affirm the uniqueness of each person in regard to age, race, nationality, gender, socio-economic status, ability, or faith denomination. We are all members of the body of Christ, and our unity in diversity brings glory to God.
“We are a community of learners seeking to grow in wisdom, knowledge, and in relationship with Jesus. We're taking this journey together.”
