What is
Faith Christian
School? Why do we exist? Is our
school a collection of desks, books, computers, and science equipment?
If these were the essence of Faith, words and pictures could capture it
well. But, Faith is not just a building or blackboards, crayons or
computers, libraries or lesson plans.
Faith Christian
School
is a concept; a vision conceived in the hearts of parents in our community
who saw both a tremendous need and an outstanding opportunity. Faith
is a commitment; a desire for excellence, for achieving one’s personal best
in every area of living. Faith is Christian, an unapologetic
dedication to the truth of God. All curricula choices, all teachers,
all lesson plans, all spending decisions, and all programs are filtered
through our conviction that God is in all and over all. We seek to
accomplish academic excellence, athletic excellence, social excellence and
excellence of character, but none of this is truly possible apart from the
foundation of every aspect of Faith Christian in the Word of God.
Faith exists to assist families
who are committed to raising godly children. Our mission is to provide
teachers and curriculum that will make a life-changing impact on our
students’ lives, so that they, in turn, will impact their school, community
and world with the truth of God. We desire to produce students who are
trained and prepared to model a life of commitment to God and His principles
in all of the circumstances of their lives.
Faith Christian
School aspires to glorify God by
assisting Christian families in providing a Biblical education that
cultivates Godly character and promotes academic excellence.
In accordance with the teachings
of the Word of God, this institution is committed to the following
fundamental principles: 1) The instruction and education of children in the
school as well as the home must conform to the Word of God. 2) The
school, as an institution, properly depends on and proceeds from the home,
rather than the church or state.
In addition, the administration
of the school would urge Christian parents to recognize their Scriptural
responsibility (Deut. 6:1-9, Ps. 78:5-6, Pro. 22:6) to provide their
children with an education from a Biblical world and life view.
Faith Christian
School provides families with the expertise and
assistance to accomplish this task. The process of Christian education
involves the cooperative effort of the home, church and school. Each
must support the other for the training to become effective.
And whatever you do, whether in word or
deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the
Father through him. Colossians 3:17
