Strategic Initiatives for Miracle Foundation School of Arts and Academics

As a ministry of Restoring the Years Global Ministries, Miracle Foundation School of Arts and Academics works with leaders of the church to ensure spiritual and academic growth. These Strategic Initiatives have been researched, developed and adopted after much prayer and collaboration with church leadership, school administration, faculty, staff, and families to provide clarity and focus on how the Miracle Foundation School of Arts and Academics stakeholders are going to work towards achieving the Mission and Vision that God has called us to over the next five years.

Mission

The Miracle Foundation of Arts & Academics is a full-time preparatory school which prepares K-8 students of today to be the leaders of tomorrow through academic mastery of traditional subjects as well as by teaching social and behavioral skills, scriptural truth, character, emotional intelligence, and leadership. Academic and Spiritual Advisors customize a program for each student that includes individualized learning and family engagement. We also equip young people to stand on the truth of God’s word so they can shine the light of Jesus Christ.

Vision

“Partnering with parents to train up spiritual champions for Jesus Christ”

Our stakeholders are committed to carrying out these strategic initiatives and are focused on both the mission and vision of the Miracle Foundation of Arts and Academics.
