Teaching in all areas of life, the Truth, as centered in the Lord Jesus of the Bible.
All children are gifted, and our responsibility is to help students discover and develop their unique abilities that God has given them.
To see children grow up and reach their full potential by providing an environment that allows students to blossom as unique individuals created in the image of God.
Tabernacle School was founded in 1971 under the umbrella of Tabernacle Baptist Church as an evangelical outreach ministry. Our founder, Margaret Bridges, believed that children were valuable and cherished. Mrs. Bridges saw that there was a great need in our community to teach all children to love and follow God, not just children of Christian families. She opened the school with just five students the first year.
In 1989 our Founder, Margaret Bridges, felt God’s call to establish Christian Schools in parts of the world that were previously unreachable. Tabernacle School has partnered with several schools overseas to help spread the good news of Jesus, and we continue to identify opportunities to impact our world.
The school and church separated operations in 1996 and have continued to share use of the Tabernacle Church property. At the beginning of the 2009 school year, Mrs. Bridges retired from daily school services. We are grateful for the impact she has made as the Founder of Tabernacle School, and we continue to honor her vision and her heart for children. A management team was formed to oversee the day-to-day operations of the school, while the school board continues to be responsible for Tabernacle’s vision, mission and finances.
Tabernacle School has made many changes over the years to both the campus and the school program. With the administrative, faculty and curricular changes, Tabernacle still holds true to its founding principles that all children are gifted and deserve a loving, secure environment to grow and learn in. Along with high academic standards, Tabernacle offers many elective programs such as music, band, art, technology and physical education. Junior high school sports and expanded electives, extended daycare, resource program, and a junior kindergarten program are also offered to students and families. With all that is offered, the main objective is to point everything back to Jesus. Tabernacle’s mission statement is as relevant to us now as when it was created: Teaching in all areas of life, the Truth, as centered in the Lord Jesus of the Bible.
Committed to education, which will mold students' hearts and minds to effectively impact their lives forever.
Passionate about knowing Jesus and making Him known. Inclusive in our outreach to all people. We have families from every religion; we have those who are not connected with anyone. Through our interview process, we explain that JESUS is the central figure of our school. He is a Person, not a religion. We explain very honestly that their children will be taught to believe in Jesus and to love Him. We do not present ourselves as religious Christians, rather, we are followers of JESUS.
Vitally engaged in producing life-long learners through teaching and modeling self-discipline. We identify each student's unique God-given intelligence, through award assemblies and instruction. We begin to outline the future and build their skills by introducing them to professions that match their abilities.
Dedicated to loving and nurturing students. Tabernacle School has a foundational character program which teacher morals and ethics. Every child knows that they will be a servant leader.
Extending our ministry to children across the world with the message of Jesus. Connecting with orphans, children in prison, countries who want to have Christ-centered schools.
