| Please remember as you make choices for your children's futures that out of
all the gifts you give your children, the gifts of faith and education are
among the most important. Enrolling them here provides them an outstanding
learning environment in which the "return on investment" is something very
worthwhile - faith, confidence, strong academic base, discipline and service
to others.
We look forward to meeting propective students and parents. We have
openings in Pre-school (age 3 by August 1) through eighth grade for the
upcoming 2007-2008 school year.

Publid Law 221 requires that all accredited schools are held accountable for
the academic progress of each student. We recently received the rank of
Exemplary, the highest rank given, for improvement of 2.9% and a performance
level of 88.3% on standardized test achievement. We are proud of our
students achievement and will continue to provide a challenging learning
environment for all.
Our ISTEP+ scores rank the highest or among the highest in our area. In
English/Language Arts we rank first in grades 4-8. We also rank first in
grades 6-8 in Math and 1st in Science in grade 7. Only two grade levels are
assessed in the area of Science. We are very proud of our students' efforts
and academic achievement! We’ll be extremely pleased when 100% of our
students achieve mastery in each grade level. For now, we congratulate the
efforts of students, teachers and parents. All the hard work pays off and
will continue to do so! Extra math remediation for students in grades 3,4,5
takes place on Tuesday mornings before school to help improve student
learning. Teachers in these grade levels volunteer their time on a rotating
monthly or bi-monthly basis. We are confident that this extra time and
attention will help all our students achieve to the best of their ability.
