Eastern Mennonite School

Within the context of a rigorous curriculum, Eastern Mennonite School joins with the home and church to call students into relationship with Jesus Christ for a lifetime of acquiring the knowledge, skills, compassionate attitudes and behaviors needed for serving the world community. As a community of Christian people, we actively explore the relationship of Christ's teachings to academic disciplines and to all of life. Regular activities are scheduled in our curriculum to help students grow spiritually as well as intellectually. Daily chapel services, Bible classes, Spiritual Renewal Week twice a year, Community Service Day, small group Bible studies, and discussion of Biblical values in numerous classes are just some of the ways we encourage students to become active members of the EMHS community of believers. In study, worship, or play, students are challenged to integrate faith with life--to learn and apply Biblical standards to life's decisions. Furthermore, within our total school curriculum we design classes and other activities that encourage students to develop a range of interests and provide opportunities to grow in reading skills, insight, curiosity, analytical reasoning, creative thinking, organizational strategies and ability to complete tasks.
