About Us

Our Mission & Philosophy

“To awaken a love for God, a desire for learning and service to others.”

It is our purpose to provide a Christ-centered academic environment where students are nourished spiritually, intellectually, socially, physically and emotionally.

We believe that while knowledge of facts and the ability to think are necessary for a person to succeed in life, they are not all-inclusive.

We believe that serving God gives us purpose, inspires a sense of identity, and motivates us to serve our community.

Jenny Neil

Principal, 2nd-4th Grade Teacher | B.S. Elementary Education, minors in French and Religion, M.Ed. Reading & Literacy

Greetings! I teach the 2nd thru 4th grade classes. I have over 19 years of teaching experience and this is my 12th year at Three Sisters Adventist Christian School. Teaching is a joy and passion for me. My husband and I have two children, River and Summer. As a family, we love to snow ski, go to Lake Powell every year, and enjoy God’s great outdoors. My goal as a teacher is to create a positive learning environment for my students, to help them become lifelong learners, and most importantly to know Jesus as their friend and Savior.

Hi! My name is Kayla Collins and I am so excited to return to the school that I grew up in. I’m in love with teaching because of the connections made with my students, and the family community that is built within our classroom. I’ve been married to my best friend, James, for 9 years. We love exploring up in the mountains and being with our precious pup, Wally!

Hi, I’m Sheila Armstead. This is my 6th year at Three Sisters Adventist Christian School. My heart love is helping kids become life long learners. Our classroom is relationship-based. We learn that Jesus is crazy about us and that we are created in His image. Through social and emotional skills, friendships are formed, and life skills are developed. I am a proud grandma of 5 grandbabes, 4 married sons, and have been married to my best friend for 31 years.

Organizations

Home & School Association
The Home & School Association serves to draw the home, church and school closer together into a positive working relationship that fosters a cooperative and understanding spirit of the school’s program. Parents are encouraged to actively participate in Home & School sponsored activities.

Why should you get involved in Home and School?

Studies show that students who have parents that are involved in their education do better in school. You help decide where the fundraising money is used. As a team, we help Three Sisters Adventist Christian School be the best it can be!

Some of the objectives of Home and School are:
1. Encouraging parents to visit the school
2. Providing volunteer services as requested by the school
3. Assisting financially in providing the school with additional classroom equipment and materials

Our current Home & School Leader is Brandy Mills.

Student Life Photo Gallery

We pride ourselves in the fun we have while learning! Play is the number one way for children to learn – it helps them retain what they are being taught, and it also helps develop a love for school and education. Here are some photos from over the years of our many field trips, extra-curricular activities, and special events.
