ST. SABINA ACADEMY MISSION STATEMENT

 

St. Sabina Academy is the educational outreach ministry of St. Sabina Church. Therefore, the school shares in the mission of the church and strives to train up Christian children utilizing God’s word, the Bible, and the principles found therein. The mission scripture is Proverbs 22:6-“Train a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not turn from it.”
