Sunnydale Seventh-day Adventist^® Elementary School

Mission Statement
The Sunnydale Seventh-day Adventist Elementary school family exists to show children Jesus, nurture their love for Him and others, teach them to think, and empower them to serve.

Vision Statement

Sunnydale Adventist Elementary desires to develop Christian young people who may learn love, respect, integrity, and service in a safe, Christian environment. We want each young person to grow in Christ and to experience the joy of serving Christ in home, school, church, and community.

Our Philosophy
The Sunnydale Seventh-day Adventist Elementary is operated by the Seventh-day Adventist Church to provide a spiritually oriented education for children. A belief in the existence of the Creator God is fundamental in the philosophy of Seventh-day Adventist schools. We respect His divine authority and recognize His intervention in human affairs. We believe that true education develops the spiritual, mental, and physical powers of each student; preparing them for the joy of service in this life and for the higher joy of service in the life to come. To achieve this goal, we encourage each student to:

• develop a personal relationship with God and his fellow men as stated in Matthew 2:37-39
• master the basic academic skills
• value labor, physical and mental, as the blessing God intended
• cultivate physical fitness, mental ability, and moral purity as the blessing God intended
