We are thrilled to be in a partnership with Smart Families that will strengthen our school community and support the healthy development of every child.

Why This Matters

Smart Families mission is to honor the human dignity of every child and help them thrive—not just academically, but as whole people. When families work together to push back against the pressure of screens and distractions, we make more space for strong relationships and lasting values that align with our Christian beliefs.

Our Four Shared Norms

As part of this partnership, we invite every family to embrace these commitments:

  1. Prioritize your family and your values

  2. Delay smartphones until high school

  3. Delay social media until at least age 16

  4. Phone-free school day

UPCOMING ONLINE TALKS

The next Smart Families session takes place on Monday, October 21, with options at 9AM and 7PM CDT.

This engaging conversation will explore how faith can shape the way technology is used in daily life. The discussion will reflect on the impact of social media and digital devices on families, relationships, and spiritual well-being, and offer practical insights for living in a more faithful, balanced, and meaningful way.
