  • What are "Table People and Race People"?

    "Table" People are those who defer to others.  Jesus is the perfect model.  He always deferred to others, putting them first.  "Race" People are those who are out to win, to be first, and to take care of "old  number one."  For race people, winning is usually at the cost of someone else.  A race person is one who usually chooses a selfish response and takes care of him/herself first.  What happens to the rest of the world is "their problem."

  • What is Young Kindergarten (YK)?

    Placement in this class gives children an extra year to grow and mature.  Readiness refers to the child's ability to cope with the school environment, physically, emotionally, and socially as well as intellectually.  Before beginning school with us, every kindergarten age child is screen for proper placement.  This screening is conducted for each child by two qualified examiners, with the parent having the option to observe.

  • Do you offer child care before and after school for students?
