The choice you make for your children’s education shapes them academically, spiritually, and in their worldview and skills. At Christian schools, the faculty and staff are equipped to address each of these developing areas of a child’s life. These schools take seriously the responsibility to develop children’s minds, but they don’t distance God from academics. They know that developing skills in young people is essential to helping them reach their God-given potential.
Shawnee Nazarene Academy stands without apology for the Gospel of Jesus Christ, without any denominational emphasis, and for the highest standards of morality and Christian behavior. We endeavor to join with you to impart a Christian heritage by emphasizing love for God and His creation, respect for oneself and others, and responsibility for healthy lifestyle choices. We pledge to you that our dedication and abilities will be used to the utmost to help each child develop to their highest potential. In biblical teaching, SNA will use the Apostles’ Creed as its framework.
