Foundational Christian Curriculum
All of our curriculum is derived from a Christian worldview. We believe that all truth is God’s truth, and thus all subjects have a Christian dimension. We exist to help you and the church in developing Christian foundational knowledge. Our Christian faith courses have three distinctives. First, they start with the foundations of the faith. Then, they teach students how to communicate and defend their faith. Finally, they teach students how to live their faith.

Leadership Development
All that we do is committed to developing a strong character and faith. Education is a lifelong process. We offer structured leadership courses and activities. These build your students’ leadership principles, code of ethics, and public speaking skills. Richly varied hands-on service projects, mentoring, and service learning opportunities will help students confidently engage with the world. They will become an emerging leader with integrity. They will have the grit to make a difference and stand for what is right. We develop leaders with strong character and unwavering faith.

Tutoring
Collegiate education can be a difficult adjustment. Our instructors are not only in the classroom, but they are also in the study halls. They want to help your student prepare for academic success.

These sessions help your student gain the knowledge necessary for success.
