The mission of Abbotsford Christian School is simple, but clear: “Engaging minds, nurturing hearts, and shaping God’s world. ” It might not be a lot of words, but it is sure packed with meaning for us. So what do each of these phrases mean? What does this mission look like in real life? Here’s the answer:
ENGAGING MINDS means that teachers create an environment where students become naturally curious to interact with their learning, their discoveries, and the solving of real world problems. Students don’t just fill in worksheets about Medieval Times. They and put on a Medieval fair for the whole community. Now that’s engaging!
NURTURING HEARTS means that we are interested in developing the inside of our students. We do this through significant adult-student relationships, with the big picture view of developing character traits like responsibility, empathy, integrity, courage, and respect.  Students won’t just be given a Bible verse to learn, they’ll be to ask how God’s truth can affect the work they are doing or how the truth will be revealed.
SHAPING GOD’S WORLD means we don’t just prepare students to impact the world after graduation, —in real time, with real learning. We believe in being agents of Christ in this world—coming alongside our Saviour in the process of renewal. There is no greater calling!
