Chapel and faith
Chapel, prayer and who is welcome
Belfry began as a ministry of a neighborhood church, and faith is part of the school day: a short Bible reading each morning, prayer before lunch and chapel on Wednesdays.
All families who want what we teach are welcome, whether or not they belong to a church. If you have a question about what your child would hear or do, the head of school is glad to talk it over at a visit.

Where faith shows up
Chapel
Wednesday mornings, the whole school together: songs, a short talk and a prayer. Older students help lead the singing.
In the classroom
Each teacher opens the day with a reading and a prayer, and Bible class meets weekly in every grade.
Through the year
The school keeps Advent and Lent, and closes for Christmas and Easter. Families are invited to a spring concert in the chapel.
Come to chapel
Families may sit in on the first Wednesday of each month. Tell the office you are coming and we will save you a seat.
