Quotable

“Christian education, simply put, is the process of training and nurturing a student to grow in Christ-like character and academic abilities for the glory of God and for service to others. Since the primary responsibility for training a child rests with parents, a Christian school should serve as an extension of the family in that God-given task. The foundation of a truly 'Christian' education is the infallible authority and literal interpretation of the Bible as the source of all truth and the filter through which all subject matter is processed (I John 4:1). A Christian curriculum delivered through a staff of born again believers is at the core of a successful Christian school.

The goal of Christian education results in a life change. Only when a student accepts Christ as Savior and yields to His Lordship can he realize his own unique potential (Phil. 1:10). As a result of instilling Biblical values, stimulating critical thinking skills, and developing Christian character traits, a child will be equipped to serve God faithfully throughout their lives in the home, church and community. The desired end result of Christian education is a disciple with a Christian Worldview (Psalm 24:1) who is well prepared for faithful service (2 Tim. 2:15)."
