Kingsminster describes its mission as forming the whole child through “strong academics, small class sizes, meaningful teacher mentorship, vibrant spiritual life, and exceptional opportunities in athletics and the fine arts,” officials said.

The school said it welcomes families from a variety of faith backgrounds seeking a Christ-centered education.

Planned campus facilities include an academic building, an inspiring chapel, a competition gymnasium, a full-size soccer field, a six-lane track, multiple playgrounds and outdoor gathering spaces, and purposefully designed academic and student environments, the release said.
