Philosophy:
Our philosophy of education is based on the belief that all true wisdom and knowledge comes from God. The mission of Caldwell Adventist Elementary School (CAES) is to help each student develop spiritually, mentally, socially and physically. While we value the rigorous pursuit of knowledge, our main objective is to help students develop a solid Christian character, to realize their individual worth as children of God, embrace Christian values, and learn to make principled choices. It is also our mission to provide opportunities for students to accept Christ as their Savior, to allow the Holy Spirit to transform their lives, and to fulfill the commission of preaching the gospel to the entire world. Our philosophy and commitment to excellence is encapsulated in our school motto: “A Higher Standard”
Mission:
To provide a higher standard of Christ-centered education that promotes excellence in learning, faith, citizenship, and life.
Vision:
We will create a culture where students will be grounded in Christ and will use their God-given abilities to serve God and others in preparation for eternity.
