Mission & Vision

For over 39 years, Dawn Treader has provided vibrant and quality education for children from kindergarten to eighth grade. Classes are small, intimate and academically challenging, emphasizing principles of the Christian faith to children from all social, economic, religious and racial backgrounds. Dawn Treader is committed to educating children in an intercultural, Christian setting that helps them develop their unique gifts, talents, and calling to become Godly, transformative leaders in their community.

Our Involvement

Dawn Treader Christian School’s historic building is both a place of education, encouragement, and empowerment; and the facility in need of ongoing renovation and care. Over the last 8 years, SHM has renovated 10 bathrooms, 2 locker rooms, 6 offices, 1 game room, 1 kitchen, 1 gym floor, and 100,000 steps. It is our pleasure to consistently serve this school, and be able to equip them to continue their work amongst the youth of Paterson.
