Our School

Recognizing the need for Christian education and childcare in the Boca Raton area, Advent established a kindergarten program in 1968.  Today our 14-acre campus includes the Early Childhood School, Elementary & Middle School, Advent Life Enrichment Center, ADVENTure Club after school program and Camp ADVENTure (offered during the summer and school breaks).
