Our Religious Philosophy
FUMPers is a Christian school that is open and welcoming to children and families of all faiths. Our message is that God loves us and looks after us. We should follow God’s example by loving each other and looking out for one another. We do not discriminate on the basis of race, gender, or national origin. Christian values and attitudes will be practiced, although specific religious doctrine is not a major emphasis of the curriculum.
