The Pillars of the CLPS House System

  1. Relationship Building: The main goal of the House System is to build Christ-centered, quality relationships amongst the student population.
  2. Service: This pillar is based on the great commandment by Jesus to love God and love your neighbor. This applies to stewardship within CLPS and beyond. 
  3. Ministry to the School Population: Students are able to engage in ministry to the younger population of students as well as their peers by engaging in activities in a godly way, doing community service together and serving the school.
  4. Student Leadership: The CLPS House System provides ample opportunity for service to the school through fulfillment of duties of office. This leadership includes high expectations of officers and members to critically think to plan events, ministries and traditions that increase the value of our school community and to execute them with excellence.
