Our Mission
To provide an opportunity for students to accept Christ and develop an ongoing relationship with Him while gaining academic excellence and life skills, so that they may fulfill the gospel commission and proclaim Christ's second coming.

Our Promise to the Future
Christ-centered. Academically superb. A proven value. That's the essence of Seventh-day Adventist education in the Washington Conference.The Washington Conference of Seventh-day Adventists Office of Education provides K-12 Christian Education throughout Western Washington.

Our Global Family
Wander through a classroom in most any of our schools and you'll probably see exactly what you expect: desks, textbooks, and enthusiastic teacher and eager students - essential ingredients of a quality education.  But what you won't see is just as important.

Beyond the classroom walls, each Washington Conference school is connected to and nurtured by the global Seventh-day Adventist education system - the largest of any Protestant denomination.  More than 65,700 committed Christian teachers in more than 6,700 schools seek to train and inspire at least 1.25 million students each day.

Since its founding in the mid-19th century, the 14-million member Adventist church has invested heavily in the future through education.  Washington schools benefit from this commitment through modern facilities,
innovative curriculum, professional development support and quality measurement processes.

Though separated by oceans and continents, all Adventist schools are bound together by a sense of common mission and purpose - to prepare young people for happiness and success on this earth and a glorious life in the world to come.

Our Standards
High academic standards, safe social environments and atmospheres that foster spiritual exploration and growth have made Washington schools some to the finest in the nation. We offer our students unconditional acceptance, and the freedom for self-discovery. We challenge them to dream great dreams, and help them develop the confidence and strength to face adversity. Most important, we provide critical opportunities for each to discover the knowledge of a loving God, and to accept Jesus Christ as their personal Savior.

Our Accreditation
All schools are accredited by the Seventh-day Adventist church and approved by the State of Washington.  Several schools hold additional accreditation from the Northwest Association of Accredited Schools.

Our Schools
From our smallest kindergarten classroom to our largest academy campus, in 22 schools throughout populous Western Washington, something special is happening - the same special something that over the past century has transformed the lives of thousands of young people.
