Teaching approach of the school

The philosophy of ICSU is based on a Christ-centered view that Jesus Christ is the source of all truth. ICSU deems itself responsible for the spiritual, mental, intellectual, physical, social, and emotional development of each student, while attending ICSU. Biblical principles permeate all activities and agendas as the school aims to integrate the Bible throughout the total curriculum. Christ touched lives collectively and individually as He modeled a caring and effective teaching style, thus effective teaching begins with offering unconditional love for each child and continues through positive teacher-student relationships.
