Our Diverse Educational Pathways
Education Campus
“It is unusual for me to attach my name to an institution, but we must change the false images and narratives associated with the message of the Kingdom of God. I long for the day when both laity and clergy within the Church will be informed and adequately equipped, whereby they will go forth as distinguished Ambassadors of the Kingdom,” says Dr. Stampley. Students will be welcomed from all over the globe. They will select from several majors: Church Administration; Ambassadors of the Kingdom (Mission/Evangelism); Praise/Worship Leaders; Chaplaincy and Counselling, Biblical Studies and Religious Education. Courses include: Africa the Motherland and Birthplace of Spirituality, Church and Government, Homiletics, History of the Church (including Ethiopia, Egypt, Jerusalem and Syria) and Christianity, Church and American Chattel Slavery, Systematic Theology, Church Doctrines; Invisible Black Church, Pentecostal Holiness, Liberation Theology, Catholic and Protestant, Comparative Religion and Introduction to the Bible.
Freedom Preschool
Freedom Preschool is the first important step on the education ladder because it lays a crucial foundation for a child's future academic and social success. Preschool fosters social and emotional development, enhances communication skills, develops physical coordination, encourages learning through play, and promotes cognitive growth. Freedom Preschool provides a structured environment for children to develop essential skills and a positive attitude towards learning that will benefit them throughout their lives.
Freedom Kindergarten
Kindergarten is crucial for a child's development as it provides a foundational experience for both academic and social-emotional growth. It's the first step into formal education, laying the groundwork for future learning and success in school and life. Our Freedom Kindergarten program is designed to enhance a child's development in key areas like literacy, numeracy, social skills, and emotional regulation. We also begin to lay the foundation of cultural history for our children so they can begin to build confidence and know their worth at an early age.
Freedom Elementary School
A strong elementary school program fosters a love of learning, provides a safe and supportive environment, and offers a well-rounded curriculum that balances academic, creative, and physical development. At Freedom Elementary our key elements to academic and developmental excellence include engaging and inspiring teachers, strong social-emotional learning, and opportunities for parent and community involvement.
Freedom Middle School
A good middle school program is characterized by an engaging, challenging, and relevant curriculum delivered through varied teaching approaches and ongoing assessments. At Freedom Middle School we foster a love of learning by connecting academic content to real-world applications, encouraging curiosity and creativity through project-based learning and exploration. Additionally, we provide a supportive and welcoming environment that addresses students' social, emotional, and physical well-being, alongside academic development.

Nathaniel J. Stampley School Of Theology
Our School Of Theology teaches an academic discipline and form of activism that interprets Christianity through the lens of the African American experience, particularly in the context of oppression and liberation. Black Theology aims to empower people of African descent to overcome systemic racism by rethinking religious frameworks and emphasizing God’s solidarity with the oppressed while introducing the true role Blacks played in biblical history. NJS School Of Theology seeks to free people from false teachings and narratives by exposing racism and injustice within religious institutions thereby reclaiming Christianity from racist ideologies.
