Saint Joseph Grade School Competitors

Nativity School is a PreK‐8 coeducational school that serves approximately 300 students with a full‐time faculty and staff. Nativity's program is grounded in its mission and school philosophy: "to educate and prepare the whole child within a nurturing environment based on Catholic values and beliefs in order that the child may become a responsible and active member of the Church and society." Nativity School is located in Menlo Park, California. In 1956, the Sisters of the Presentation of the Blessed Virgin Mary founded the school near the beautiful, historic Church of the Nativity.

Mount Carmel is committed to the pursuit of knowledge in an environment of faith. Our main aim is to help each student develop an all-round personality by giving Bible-based value education, a rich, practical curriculum based academic learning, in an environment of strict discipline and goal setting. We encourage an attitude of teamwork and interdependence among our students and staff. We believe in the trueness of life because it reflects what we are. We want the youth to impact the world positively. Page managed by 2022 alumnus, Lalnundika Darlong.

Our philosophy centers on Jesus Christ as the focal point of all teaching and learning. Because we believe the Bible is the infallible, divine Word of God, we desire that students be conformed into the image of Jesus (Rom. 8:9), that they learn to think like Him and to live the whole of their life according to biblical perspectives and principles. Bethany Christian School is a "discipleship" school. This means BCS sees its purpose to be complementing and supplementing to what is going on in the Christian home. BCS is not called to be an evangelistic tool of the ministry. The school's role is to impress on each student with the knowledge that God is the source of all subjects in the curriculum (Col. 1:17; Col. 17; II Cor. 8:6). Accordingly, teachers implement biblical principles into their classroom instruction and discipline. In addition, as a discipleship school, we are here to educate students who come from Christian homes in which parents agree with our statement of faith and agree with the biblical standards of marriage and family. BCS sees education as a succession of the instruction and internal discipline based upon the teachings and principles found in the Bible. Education is: (1) to shed light on the student's academic comprehension and to expose his mind to justice, truth, and ownership of property (right of possessing, enjoying, or disposing of a thing inherent or natural); (2) to set free the mind so that the student will reason based upon the criteria of truth set forth in the Word of God; (3) to mold the student's behavior so that the student may pursue the course of life in which Jesus Christ has chosen for him/her and, thus, be a beneficial and valuable asset to society.
