Education
LOVE, THE BASIS OF CREATION AND OF REDEMPTION, IS THE BASIS OF TRUE EDUCATION.

Adventist education is predicated on the belief that each student is unique and of inestimable value, made in God’s image and endowed with attributes akin to those of the Creator. An education of this kind imparts far more than academic knowledge; it is a balanced development of the whole person.
Adventist students outperform the national average in all subjects and in all grades tested. They also score higher than expected based on testing of their individual abilities.
