At Immanuel, we believe that each child is a special gift from God. We promote each child’s social, emotional, physical, cognitive and spiritual development, and accept and affirm them no matter where they fall within these categories.
We designed this podcast channel in order to share from the perspective of those who make Immanuel so unique — our teachers, students and families.
