A: At an Adventist school, students' freedom to think for themselves is respected and nurtured, and students are encouraged to learn how to make good moral decisions regardless of their creed or belief system.  One key Adventist principle is that no one should be pressured into church membership, but join willingly as they choose.  Children of Adventist parents only become baptized members when they are old enough to make the decision consciously and responsibly.

A: Every Adventist school is accredited by a state or national accrediting body. In addition, the church office of education also operates a comprehensive accrediting process to maintain a high standard of excellence in all Adventist schools. Teachers are held to the same standard and most of our teachers have masters. If you're interested in our Adventist school, feel free to contact us to get a sense of what our education is like. We think you'll find, as an ongoing study is finding, that on average Adventist schools are better places to learn than any other.

A: The name "Seventh-day Adventist" refers two core beliefs. Respecting the fourth of God's Ten Commandments, Adventists worship on Saturday, the seventh day of the week. "Adventist" refers to Jesus Christ's promise to return and take his followers home to heaven. Adventists believe in the imminent advent, or return, of Jesus Christ.
