Shepherding
Hearts and Minds.
Come Grow With Us.
A Christ-centered, discipleship-model covenant school in Northern Virginia — cultivating excellence with a heart for God through joyful learning, small classes, and a true partnership with parents.
Shepherding the hearts and academics of every student.
Biblical Worldview
A Christ-centered worldview is integrated into every subject — with weekly chapel, daily Bible class, Scripture memorization, and monthly Christian character focus.
Joyful Learning
Small classes, hands-on labs, music, art, PE, and field trips through the rich history of the DMV — learning that is rigorous and truly joyful.
Partnering with Parents
As a discipleship-model covenant school, we come alongside parents — who have a real voice in their children's education — for the long journey.
“A school where every child is shepherded, known, and challenged.”
At Shepherd, we partner with parents as the primary disciplers of their children. Our teachers pair a proven Abeka and Bob Jones University curriculum with genuine care — small classes, a biblical worldview woven into every subject, and joyful learning that shapes lifelong disciples and thoughtful young leaders.
We would love to welcome your family to campus. Come grow with us.

“Our children are known by name and loved deeply. It shows in everything they do.”
“The academics are rigorous, but what stays with us is the character formation.”
“Shepherd feels like an extension of our home — same values, same joy.”
