The mission of the Lancaster Baptist School is to assist parents in equipping their students to be balanced citizens prepared to impact their homes, churches, and communities for Christ.
Our school is a ministry of Lancaster Baptist Church and is designed to help families rear their children for Christian service.
Our approach is a complementary one. God has established the family as the principle entity to train children, with the church serving as a second platform of spiritual training and leadership development for the family.
The Christian school provides a third source of godly influence.
The first and strongest emphasis is the spiritual nature of the child and family.
The second emphasis is on academics. The third and fourth areas of emphasis are on proper physical and social development.
The purpose of Lancaster Baptist School is to educate and to train the whole student: spiritually, intellectually, physically, and socially.
Because the Lord requires a vessel unto honor, guidelines for personal habits, definite dress codes, and proper leisure-time activities are provided.
The principle of self-discipline is the basis of our disciplinary structure.
We believe the student must honor the rights of others and respect the individual’s freedom.
