September 17, 20251 min read

Selecting a Christian school is more than comparing tuition and test scores; it’s about finding a community where your child’s mind, character, and curiosity flourish together. Use the seven questions below as your decision-making compass, then bring them to our upcoming Open House for real-time answers.

  1. What Does “Faith-Based” Look Like Day-to-Day?

    • Are Bible lessons woven into academics or set apart?
    • Do teachers model values through conflict-resolution and service projects?

  2. How Rigorous—& Relevant—is the Curriculum?
