Christ-Centered Education
Faith Woven into Every Day
Cross of Hope School is a private Christian school in Albuquerque, and our education is unapologetically Christ-centered. Faith isn’t confined to a Bible class—it’s woven into each day in every classroom. Students often begin the morning with a prayer, a Bible verse, or a short devotional, learning to see God’s hand in all they do.
Whether they’re working on math problems or playing on the playground, Christian principles like kindness, honesty, and respect are continually emphasized. Our teachers encourage children to love God and love others in practical ways every day, so living out faith becomes as natural as reading and writing.
Biblical Values Across the Curriculum
Our teachers find ways to integrate biblical truths and values into lessons across the curriculum. Children might marvel at God’s creation during a science lesson on weather or discuss empathy and forgiveness when learning about historical events in social studies.
We use faith-based educational resources and a biblical worldview to complement our standard curriculum, especially in subjects like history, literature, or character education. By linking academics with biblical principles, students gain knowledge in core subjects and learn to view the world through the lens of Christian faith—seeing that God’s truth applies to every area of life.
Worship and Prayer as a Community
Part of being a faith-based school in Albuquerque means we openly practice our faith together as a community. In addition to class prayers and devotions, our students gather for a weekly chapel service to worship and learn more about God’s Word—often with students helping to lead the service.
We celebrate religious holidays such as Christmas and Easter with special programs that honor Christ. Throughout the week, you’ll find students and teachers praying together—asking for help before a test or giving thanks at lunchtime. Through these shared practices, children see that faith isn’t just talked about; it’s lived out daily at school. This Christ-centered approach nurtures spiritual growth alongside academic growth.
