Our Vision

Our vision is to give the gift…

The gift of choice to every student:

• Freedom from the trap of conformity
• Strength from the bonds of authentic friendship

The gift of peace to every parent:

• Satisfaction because their children model courage and lead others
• Relief because their children live with a constant safety net of support and encouragement

The gift of transformation to our community:

• We imagine “integrity life-boats” in every school to rescue kids from a sea of moral apathy.
• We see “oak tree teenagers” standing tall against the winds of peer pressure.
• We can feel the moral fabric of cities and communities growing stronger over years of supporting the character development of students.

Our commitment to our community…

Each of us make an impact for a better shared future. Inclusion, equity, and diversity are ingrained in who we are as an expression of our faith and a reflection of what makes our community great. But our work is far from over. In fact, we continuously push for better.
