Overview

Mission

To provide a quality educational experience within a Chrisitian environment which strives to enlighten the student to grow spiritually, physically, emotionally and intellectually.

What it reported doing in 2024

Provided quality educational experiences in a Christian environment to 119 students during the fiscal year ending June 30, 2025. We provide instruction from preschool to high school and our students progress through the grades as they master the grade requirements. Our students score at their grade level and are on par or above the county public schools.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 94% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and assets have declined or grown slowly.
