We consider it a privilege to be allowed to nurture and teach each child who has been entrusted to our care. Our goal is to develop a three-way partnership between the family, the church, and the school to effectively disciple every student, leading them to pursue a life that honors Jesus Christ and serves His people. To that end, we employ certified, professional teachers who prayerfully invest their lives in our children every day, modeling for them dedication to God’s calling, an excellent work ethic, and respect in all relationships. Through intentional, systematic Biblical integration of all subject areas our teachers lay the foundation for a Biblical worldview, enabling the students to recognize the universe as the work of God’s hand, that “in all things He might have the preeminence…” Colossians 1:18
ELEMENTARY & MIDDLE SCHOOL
The Elementary and Middle School Experience
Life Way uses various curriculum materials to ensure that each subject area is approached with the strongest resources available. A Kingdom Education encompasses all of the traditional academic disciplines with an emphasis on understanding God’s design and seeking His glory in each one. We believe that encouraging our students to pursue excellence in academics is valuable training for the pursuit of excellence in all facets of life, including career, community involvement, and service to God through the church.
