WE BELIEVE…
1. Educational inequality is one of the greatest human and civil rights issues in America today.
2. That God — the creator of heaven and earth — cares deeply about the spiritual and physical needs of all people; therefore, he calls his people to go into all the world to offer love and seek justice for all.
3. That teaching children is among the most important jobs and most noble professions one can enter into for the good of others.
THEREFORE…
