About Us

We exist to help students grow in their love for Jesus. While spiritual growth can’t be measured and quantified with numbers, we do see it happening every day. It starts with our commitment to making Christ the center of all we do––not just the subject of a single Bible class. And it continues through our focus on the Bible as the sole guide for our beliefs and behavior as Protestant Christians. We invite you to visit our campus and experience how our teachers and staff model their love for God and nurture it in our students.

Our goal is to develop Christians with wisdom, not just knowledge. So we’ve structured our academic program to put God first and we find that, like Adventist schools of all sizes across the country, this results in students who grow academically at a higher rate than their peers in other schools (see the next paragraph). It really is true that when we “seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, all these things will be added to you.” (Matthew 6:33) To learn more about the specific results of our school, schedule an Education Success Consult with our principal.

Making healthy choices is a way of honoring our bodies as the temple of the Holy Spirit (1 Corinthians 6:19). And plenty of research documents the importance of healthy bodies in developing healthy brains. So we include learning about taking care of our bodies with daily exercise, good sleep, healthy eating, and more. To see how we integrate wise lifestyle choices into our curricula, come visit our campus.

Loving and serving others is part of God’s plan for each of us and something we practice daily.  As we interact with each other here at school and as we practice service in our community, we are guided by Paul’s words, “Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love.” (Ephesians 4:2) While we are not perfect, we are constantly aiming to be more Christ-like with each other and to serve our community.  Come see how this influences our students with a visit to our campus.

Above all things, the Bayside staff is committed to the harmonious development of the whole child. We help each child grow spiritually, academically, physically, and socially-emotionally. 

Bayside Adventist Christian School is committed to:

The core values of Bayside can be summarized with the following:

Building mature faith

Atmosphere of acceptance

Yearn for conscientious growth

Serving others

Innovative instruction

Differentiating instruction

Engaged students and educators

As part of the long standing principles of Adventist education, Bayside Adventist Christian School  believes in educating the complete individual, including developing the spiritual, intellectual, physical, and social aspects of each student.  A high degree of excellence in education is pursued in all areas.  God is recognized as the ultimate source of existence and truth and all aspects of the school program are structured in light of this truth. The goal of Bayside is to provide a safe environment in which caring Christian teachers point their students to the Creator-God as we work with families in achieving the following goals.

As students learn of God’s love for them and for all mankind, they experience a personal relationship with Him, accept His plan of redemption for their lives, and find their true self-worth and future.  They become acquainted with the Bible as God’s word to mankind and study God’s revealed will to us through its teachings.  As they explore the mysteries of the world of nature and an unfolding universe, their faith in God is strengthened.  Students learn to look outside themselves and find their greatest joy in unselfish service to others.  They develop a personal devotional life and also experience character education in learning to make morally correct choices.

All students can do quality work and students are encouraged to achieve their potential by only being satisfied with their best.  Students learn valuable knowledge in all subject areas, but beyond that, they are taught to be thinkers and to put the knowledge learned to practical use and problem solving.  The higher levels of thinking are taught as the student progresses through the grades.

Bayside teaches and supports the principles of good health, including healthful diet, adequate rest, daily exercise, and abstinence from harmful substances.  Opportunities for daily exercise are found in physical education classes.

Regular opportunities are provided for students to learn the skills necessary to be successful in social situations.  Conflict management skills are taught.  Students learn to value all people as being of equal worth, regardless of their diverse backgrounds and nationalities.

Above all things, the Bayside staff is committed to the harmonious development of the whole child. We help each child grow spiritually, academically, physically, and socially-emotionally.
