This is a question posed by literally hundreds of visitors to our campus and also
articulated as a challenge to our staff in their pursuit of excellence. The following
examples are offered as we contemplate Whitefield’s mission.
|
Whitefield is unique as a Christ-centered academically challenging school. All of
the faculty and staff are committed Christians who strive to challenge students
beyond their self-imposed limitations and who also perceive priorities above the
external. |
|
|
|
"Community" is an actual experience at Whitefield. Moms’ groups, dads’ groups, student
activities, and family events bring our school together with a purpose of uniting
and including. |
|
|
|
Excellent core courses, honors courses, and AP classes challenge students to become
critical thinkers and problem solvers from the earliest ages. However, educating
a young person moves full-circle by including a spiritual component of knowing Christ,
understanding God’s perspective in all of life, and practicing the Christian directive
to serve others. |
|
|
|
Whitefield is growing! From its inception in 1997, as a school serving 96 students
in grades 6 through12, to its present enrollment of 684 students in grades Pk-4
through 12, the Whitefield community is thriving and continually moving forward
with new sports programs, fine arts opportunities, and the addition of new facilities.
|
|
|
|
Whitefield graduates are moving into the university and beyond with individual testing
and counseling relating to aptitudes, interests, and abilities – directed towards
answering questions of identity and purpose as it applies to college, career, and
life choices. |
Finally, the students, faculty, staff, and parents at Whitefield truly enjoy our
school community. We invite you to visit our campus and see why we have chosen Whitefield!
