1. NLIS uses the Bible and other Christian resources to help us understand our world.
At New Life International School, Christian teachers help students understand the world as created by God, affected by brokenness, and renewed through Christ. Students of all backgrounds are encouraged to use the Bible as a guide for thoughtful reflection and positive action in the world.
Suggestions for Parents
-
Read and explore the Bible together, discussing its stories and values.
-
Talk with your child about both Christian and non-Christian ideas, encouraging thoughtful and respectful conversations.
-
Encourage involvement in church or Christian youth activities. NLIS offers a Bible summer camp opportunity each year for students in Grades 3 through High School.
2. NLIS uses English as the language of instruction and require the acquisition of a high level of English to be successful.
Research shows that parent involvement plays an important role in a child’s success at school and in life. NLIS encourages regular communication between parents and teachers through email, meetings, phone calls, and participation in school activities. While only a few events are required, family engagement is valued and appreciated. Parents are encouraged to support their children’s learning at home and stay involved in their school life.
If questions or concerns arise, parents are encouraged to address them first with the classroom teacher. If needed, concerns may then be brought to the Principal.
Suggestions for Parents
Talk regularly with your child about school and academic progress, and review homework together.
Communicate with teachers when questions or concerns arise.
Show support by attending school events or volunteering when possible.
Ensure clear communication with the school, including arranging translation support if needed.
3. We strive to educate the whole person.
At New Life International School, strong academics prepare students for higher education, while a whole-person approach nurtures spiritual, social, emotional, and physical growth. We value each student’s unique gifts and encourage them to do their best, build strong character and leadership, live responsibly in a global community, and serve others. We celebrate diverse talents and support different learning styles.
Suggestions for Parents
-
Help your child discover and develop their unique gifts and encourage them to do their best.

4. We believe students succeed better with parents' help.
Research shows that parental involvement in school is crucial to children's success in school and life. Parents and teachers should maintain regular contact via email, meetings, and phone calls. Parents should encourage and assist their children at home in their studies and activities.
Suggestions for Parents
-Frequently ask your child about school life and academic progress. Check your child's homework frequently and praise them when appropriate.
-Communicate with the teacher when you have a question or concern.
-Show your support by attending school activities, such as dramas, school presentations, and Open House. Volunteer to help with a classroom party, a field trip, be a speaker at our school, or teach a lesson to a class.
-Be sure you can communicate with the school and the teachers. For some families, this means requesting translation assistance for clarity.
5. NLIS uses a variety of assessment tools.
At NLIS, student learning is assessed in many ways. No single test defines a student’s success. Teachers use a variety of assessments—such as standardized and classroom tests, projects, presentations, portfolios, and observations—to understand student progress and learning.
Suggestions for Parents
-
Encourage your child to value all assignments, not just test scores.
-
Monitor progress and help your child stay encouraged if one result is disappointing.
-
Contact the teacher promptly if you see your child struggling academically.
6. NLIS emphasizes higher-order thinking skills.
At NLIS, memorization supports learning, but greater emphasis is placed on understanding, analysis, and real-world application. Students are taught how to find information, evaluate its accuracy, and use it to solve problems, rather than relying on memorization alone.
Suggestions for Parents
-
Encourage your child to think through problems and explore solutions, offering guidance rather than immediate answers.
-
Play puzzles or thinking games together, or encourage independent problem-solving activities.
7. NLIS disciplines fairly and consistently to modify inappropriate behavior.
Discipline is handled with fairness and consistency and is intended to guide behavior, not punish the student. Grounded in Christian principles of justice and grace, the school works in partnership with parents to help students learn appropriate behavior and make positive choices.
Suggestions for Parents
-
Support teachers and administrators when disciplinary action is necessary.
-
Talk regularly with your child about school life and friendships.
-
Review the NLIS Student Handbook together to understand school expectations and policies.
8. NLIS places a realistic emphasis on grades.
At NLIS, grades are important, but they are not the sole measure of learning. Overemphasis on scores can create unhealthy pressure and limit authentic growth. We value life skills such as collaboration, leadership, honesty, creativity, and imagination—qualities that may not always be reflected in a GPA but have lasting impact. Grounded in Christian education, we encourage students to honor God by using their gifts and to find joy in learning. Our goal is to nurture students who are “Love Learning” and motivated for lifelong learning.
Suggestions for Parents
-
Encourage effort and improvement without placing excessive pressure on grades.
-
Avoid harsh consequences when your child has done their best; growth and motivation develop at different times.
-
Recognize and celebrate your child's strengths and efforts, including those beyond academics.
9. NLIS emphasizes developing a personal worldview and living consistently using that worldview.
Our mission is to nurture God-centered students who love learning, express themselves with purpose, and care for others. Students are encouraged to understand the world, make wise choices, and thoughtfully explain their beliefs using faith, evidence, and sound reasoning. Through service and outreach, they learn to show love and respect in and beyond the school community.
Suggestions for Parents
Talk regularly with your child about what they believe and why.
Encourage actions that reflect strong values and high standards.
Discuss both Christian and non-Christian ideas to support thoughtful, informed perspectives.
