Life Christian School
School Notes Overview:
The philosophical vision of Life Christian School and Academy is rooted in the Christian view of life. We celebrate the triune God as the author of all truth and reality as He is revealed in Scripture and creation. The center of a student's education is Jesus Christ through whom all other learning must be viewed and integrated; He is both the reason and source for all learning. The design for Christian learning integrates increased understanding of the natural world, human history, culture, and the arts, with increased personal knowledge of God Himself as revealed in Christ and understood through the Scriptures. Life Christian, as an educational institution, believes bringing up a child in Christ-likeness is primarily the responsibility and Biblical duty of the parent. Our school exists to assist in that education but will never replace the family's role. We work in partnership with the family as we work through our shared commitment to the student's upbringing. That commitment is expressed in a mutual desire to see student's character transformed to reflect the image of Christ, impacting the world in their calling, family and community....
