SAFE AND SECURE
We believe children deserve a safe and secure environment in order to thrive, which is why we've gone the extra mile to provide a secure campus.
We are a closed campus. All visitors must sign in at the office and provide a driver’s license identification. They are screened through our Raptor system against the National Sexual Predator database and are issued a colored lanyard that indicates their purpose on campus. All staff, visitors, volunteers, and contractors must wear a lanyard while on school grounds.
Additionally, for extra safety, we partner with the New Smyrna Beach Police Department and have a School Safety Officer on campus during the school day.
In the classrooms, students are welcomed and nurtured by a caring faculty and staff, and are taught to care for and respect each other.
Our parents can be confident in knowing their child is being taken care of, being valued, and being loved as an individual and as a child of God.
