Our mission is to provide children with an education that prepares them to become useful citizens of this world, and instills in them the values and habits needed by members of the Lord's heavenly kingdom. The Bryn Athyn Church School and Preschool together with the Academy Secondary Schools, educates children in the light of the teachings of the New Church. Religion is integrated into every aspect of the life of the school, through direct and indirect instruction. Students attend daily worship services and study religion in the classroom. Love to the Lord and the neighbor are the highest values taught them, along with obedience to the Ten Commandments and a life of useful service.

Families that share an interest in the positive values and teachings of the New Church are invited to consider the Bryn Athyn Church School for their children.
