The Miraflores Adventist Educational Institution (commonly known as Miraflores Adventist College, or CoAM for its Spanish acronym) ( Spanish: Institución Educativa Adventista Miraflores — Colegio Adventista Miraflores) is a private co-educational Seventh-day Adventist high school located in the urban district of Miraflores, Lima, Peru. [1] Established in 1919 by representatives of the General Conference of the Seventh-day Adventist Church as Industrial College, the college is part of the Seventh-day Adventist education system, the world's second largest Christian school system. [2] [3] [4] [5]
Students are required to take religion classes each year. These classes cover topics in biblical history and Christian and denominational doctrines. Instructors in other disciplines also begin each class period with prayer or a short devotional thought. The student body gathers every week in the auditorium for an hour-long chapel service. Outside the classrooms there is year-round spiritually oriented programming that relies on student involvement.
...the Adventist Church runs a Christian school system second only in size to the Roman Catholic parochial schools.
