School Notes Overview: |
The philosophy of Tennessee Temple Academy emphasizes the interrelationship of three institutions (the home, the church, and the school) working together for the betterment of the child. At Tennessee Temple, it is our firm conviction that proper training first begins in the home. The home was the first institution God set up on earth, and it is where the child first learns set patterns of behavior. Each child learns to respond to discipline and authority as he/she reacts to the controls or guidelines of the mother and father. There the child also learns how to respond to other individuals, either by playing with the other children in the family, or those who live nearby. So it is in the home where the child learns a value system of right and wrong. When a child is taught proper discipline and respect in the early years at home, he/she is then ready to be educated and to develop the skills necessary to face life successfully. ...read more
