The philosopher Simone Weil wrote, “The joy of learning is as indispensable in study as breathing is in running. Where it is lacking there are no real students, but only poor caricatures of apprentices who, at the end of their apprenticeship, will not even have a trade.”

I believe that a “love for learning” is essential to the success of the student.  It can be discovery of new stuff or curiosity about why something works. My goal as an educator is to model a wide-eyed eagerness to learn as many new and wonderful things as possible, within the Christian worldview.

With the Holy Scriptures as our foundation, I believe the SJA staff place our students in the direct path of the Creator God, who re-creates us in His image. Thank you, Jesus.
