Description of Organization
History
In 1996, a diverse group of concerned citizens came together with a vision to found a non-profit, Christ-centered school in Charlotte's urban core. Their task was to provide quality education and moral teaching to under-resourced students; their hope was in God's protection and provision to make it happen.
From a seed planted in prayer, the school opened its doors in 2001 and has blossomed to become a beacon for under-resourced children in Charlotte, NC.
Our Mission
To glorify God by equipping under-resourced students academically, socially, and spiritually for future lives of leadership and service.
Our Vision
To raise up the next generation of leaders from Charlotte to engage their generation for Jesus Christ.
Our Values
- We believe that the Old and New Testament are inspired by God and are the final authority in faith and life.
- We believe that God in the person of the Holy Spirit convicts, teaches, and empowers those who accept Jesus as their Lord and Savior.
- We believe that as the body of Christ we are called to serve one another in love.
- We believe that academic excellence equips students to glorify God through the vocation in which they will be led to serve.
- We believe a Christ-centered education will produce the next generation of culture-shaping leaders.
- We believe parents are vital partners as they model crucial character formation while providing nurture and support.
