Spiritual Life

At Karis Academy, we are dedicated to providing a nurturing and supportive learning environment for your child. Our caring and qualified staff are committed to helping each student reach their full potential through a Christian education that is classically-minded.

Karis: "love in action"

A Christian school is more than just a gathering of students and faculty that profess Christ. It's an opportunity to nurture spiritual formation and biblical worldview through the teachings of Christ. At Karis, we believe that loving and serving others are virtues that stem from our love for God. Join us in spreading charity and compassion to others, as we strive to make the world a better place.

We believe that love and virtue go hand in hand, and we strive to cultivate both in our students. At Karis, we focus on nurturing the whole person, with an emphasis on character development and the desire to please and serve. Character development is possible as students learn to love Christ in a personal way. Our curriculum aims to give students the knowledge, tools, and resources they need to become successful leaders, life-long learners, and compassionate individuals. We are proud to be a school where love and virtue are not just buzzwords, but everyday realities.

Assembly

At Karis Academy, we believe in shaping well-rounded individuals who not only excel in academics but also build their values and character on a strong foundation. Our Assembly sessions are designed to inspire our students and help them to reflect on the teachings of Christ, while our catechisms help instill in them the principles of the faith. Our students become catechized in God's word, and this knowledge is reflected in their love in action toward the wider community.

Assembly is a place where both mind and spirit are nurtured. We believe in the transformative power of education and strive to instill in our students a love of learning that will transcend the classroom. Our curriculum is rooted in faith, offering a unique perspective on the world and encouraging students to view their studies as a means of glorifying God. We regard purity in thought and action as essential for a well-rounded education, and believe that our students will leave Karis with a strong foundation to guide them throughout their lives.

Karis is a school with a difference. We are committed to educating the whole child, which means that we prioritize character development just as much as academic achievement. Our focus on virtues, renewal, and a biblical worldview sets us apart from other schools and prepares our students to be leaders in their communities. We believe that education is a transformative experience, and we are proud to be part of the journey that our students take toward achieving their full potential.
