01What it does

What Hastings Christian School does

Mission

Our mission is to disciple image bearers to love god, to train in true discernment and equip them to rightly order their love.

As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.

Program

  1. Hastings Christian School utilizes the trivium (grammar, logic, and rhetoric) to cultivate deep learning. Rather than merely focusing on information, we are primarily focused on formation. Students will move from concrete knowledge (grammar) to puzzling towards truth (logic) to wisdom pouring out (rhetoric) in the various subjects and topics they study. In the primary years, our desire is to cultivate wonder and curiosity so that children seek truth as they interrogate the world around them. In the secondary years, we want students to deeply ponder and wrestle towards truth while studying a variety of engaging thoughts, ideas, and philosophies. Our ultimate academic aim is mastery, whereby students become deeply proficient in each field of study, so that they can apply masterful understanding to their future endeavors and ultimately discern the right from the almost right.

Each line starts at 100 in 2022, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2022, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
