Recommended Reading

As a faculty and staff, we read two books per year together. These books help us continue to grow and learn as professionals and as Christians. Not all of these books have been read by all of our faculty – some were read before their time, but the ideas in these books helped make us who we are today. Many of these books are parenting books, some are teacher books, and all of these books will help you on your journey to growing closer with your family and God. The ideas and teachings in these books have had a part in shaping our philosophy as a school – provided that they confirm what the Bible teaches us.
