Why Bother with Christian Education?
Taylor Hurt, Upper School Science
“Slowly, slowly, I have learned to put into words the differences between Christian education and modern secular education. What do you think the difference is? Isn’t chemistry just chemistry after all? Isn’t Spanish just Spanish?”
Experiencing Freedom to Play
Scott Mitchell, Middle School Physical Education
“My goal is to open my students’ eyes to the wonder and complexity of God’s creation as they experience it firsthand in their own bodies.”

Yes, You Can!
Susan Champion, Middle & Upper School Assistant Principal
“Maybe there are specific skills or tasks that individual students won’t ever full accomplish. Maybe the mysteries of who vs whom will always elude them. Maybe, like me, the most they will ever understand about the quadratic formula is that it is a think that exists somehow, doing something for someone somewhere. But we, in our finite wisdom, can not and should not put those limitations on ourselves or our students before they even try. Doing so does not honor the complex and marvelous brains with which God has gifted us.”
Discipling the Next Generation
Rodney Meadth, Middle & Upper School Principal
“To spend one’s life bringing along the next generation, teaching through word and deed what it looks like to follow Jesus–that’s my deep desire and joy.”
Fearfully and Wonderfully Made
Carri Svoboda, Middle School Humanities
“I love the reality that even in the midst of crisis I can affirm for my students that God created them for a purpose. That they matter–not only to me and their folks but to the creator of the universe.”
