Our Mission
Sammamish Christian School and Noah’s
Ark Preschool (SCSNA) exists to provide a well rounded
and academically excellent education from a biblical Christian
worldview.
Our Vision
The vision of our school is to create an
environment that enriches the intellectual and spiritual development
of children through the elementary years. We are committed to a strong
academic curriculum that achieves excellence in language arts,
mathematics, and science and enables critical thinking, all infused
with the principles of the Christian faith.
Our Christian Education Philosophy
We believe that a quality education must
strive for excellence in the basics of language arts, mathematics,
science, and critical thinking. As Christian educators, we select the
best appropriate curriculum with this in mind and support its teaching
with the principles of the Christian faith. For example, although
Scripture teaches truths that have scientific and biological
implications, a student will not learn the parts of a cell from
reading the Bible.
Therefore, appropriate secular
curriculum will be taught in order to provide each student with a well
rounded education. Our teachers then infuse their lessons with a
Christian worldview in mind (Please review our Philosophy Supplement
for specific information on the Christian Worldview disciples).
It is our belief that the students should also be age appropriately
acquainted with secular worldviews in each educational discipline to
help develop the critical thinking skills that will equip them to be
grounded in and support their Christian beliefs.
