We are committed to providing an excellent education, and we are also passionate about developing each student’s faith and character.
We are seeking applicants who are professionally qualified, who love children, and who, by the pattern of their lives, are Christian role models (Luke 6:40).
Since we are a religious non-profit organization, all staff, regardless of position, must profess acceptance of Jesus Christ as their personal savior and they must be an active member of a church which has a similar doctrine as our school organization.
