First Baptist Christian School
School Notes Overview:
First Baptist Christian School, a ministry of First Baptist Church, exists to support Christian parents in educating their children to achieve in academic, social, physical, and spiritual excellence. Our mission is accomplished by integrating Scriptural truth into every facet of the educational process. First Baptist Christian School is a ministry of First Baptist Church in Mishawaka, Indiana. The church was chartered in 1867, thus providing the congregation with a rich heritage and testimony touching three centuries. Over the years, First Baptist has continued to maintain a faithful, fundamental witness to the infallible Word of God and our Savior, Jesus Christ. All faculty members are born-again believers called to minister in Christian education. Our Philosophy is based upon the Biblical conviction that education cannot be divided into the secular and the sacred. The Bible teaches that God is Truth and that Jesus Christ, His Son, is Truth. The Bible commands parents to “Train up a child in the way he should go”. An education ignoring God and His Word and purporting to be neutral can only become morally and spiritually powerless. True education is training by instruction and example in the truth and that requires the Bible to be the foundation....
