The Mission Statement for Wesleyan says, among other things, that it is "to be a Christian school" and provide each student a college preparatory education "guided by Christian principles."

We are a Christian school because of our belief that Christ is the Son of God and that He is our Savior. We evidence our Christian belief by hiring Christian administrators and faculty who demonstrate their faith in the lives they lead and in their interaction with the students. We also evidence our Christian belief by our maintenance of a required Bible curriculum, in each division of the school. We introduce students to the Bible in class, homeroom and chapel and on other occasions. The classroom study encourages a Biblical literacy that cannot be easily or widely achieved without the academic rigor of regular, required inspection. In an effort to foster in students a spirit of Christian stewardship, we provide a varied program of opportunities to serve others, all of which are centered in Christ's ministry and teaching.

The education Wesleyan offers is guided by Christian principles. The school believes in a creator God who gave us rules by which we must live and teach others to live. He has revealed Himself to us through His creation, His scriptures, His Son Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit. We are to use these revelations to honor Him in humble obedience in all that we say, think and do.

Therefore, Wesleyan seeks to introduce children to the reality of God, Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit through formal and informal contact with Christian teachers and through regular academic and non-academic study of scripture; to nurture growth of faith in Christ for students in whom the Holy Spirit has moved through ongoing and frequent exposure to male and female encouragers of Christianity as a way of life; and to provide and sponsor regular and scheduled opportunities for worship, service and Christian inquiry both on and off campus throughout the school year.
