The Murupus Academy's Mission Statement:

"To promote the highest standards of education through developing the potential of pupils using acceptable and adaptive teaching methods, continuous mentoring, and a diversified curriculum."

Note: This mission statement was written several years ago.  Today it would read differently due to CSI's in-service education to address the need to apply a pervasive Biblical worldview to every school activity.
