The school is however not affiliated with a particular denomination or with a particular church and the enrolled students come from different religious backgrounds. They have Christian Studies class but does not enforce the students to convert to Christianity.

“The North is full of tangled things and texts and aching eyes
And dead is all the innocence of anger and surprise,
And Christian killeth Christian in a narrow dusty room,
And Christian dreadeth Christ that hath a newer face of doom,
And Christian hateth Mary that God kissed in Galilee,”
—Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874–1936)
