THE OAKS` VISION STATEMENT
We aim to partner with parents to graduate young men and women
who think clearly and listen carefully with discernment and
understanding; who reason persuasively and articulate precisely;
who are capable of evaluating their entire range of experience in
the light of the Scriptures; and who do so with eagerness in joyful
submission to God. We desire them to recognize cultural influences
as distinct from biblical, and to be unswayed towards evil by the
former. We aim to find them well-prepared in all situations,
possessing both information and the knowledge of how to use it. We
desire they be socially graceful and spiritually gracious; equipped
with and understanding the tools of learning; desiring to grow in
understanding, yet fully realizing the limitations and foolishness
of the wisdom of this world. We desire they have a heart for the
lost and the courage to seek to dissuade those who are stumbling
towards destruction; that they distinguish real religion from
religion in form only; and that they possess the former, knowing
and loving the Lord Jesus Christ. And all these we desire them to
possess with humility and gratitude to God.
We likewise aim to cultivate these same qualities in our staff
and to see them well paid so that they may make a career at The
Oaks. We desire them to be professional and diligent in their work,
gifted in teaching, loving their students and their subjects. We
desire they clearly understand classical education, how it works in
their classroom and how their work fits into the whole; that they
possess a lifelong hunger to learn and grow; and that they have
opportunity to be refreshed and renewed. We desire to see them
coach and nurture new staff and to serve as academic mentors to
students. We look to see them mature in Christ, growing in the
knowledge of God, their own children walking with the Lord.
We aim to cultivate in our parents a sense of responsibility
for the school; to see them well informed about the goals of our
classical and Christ-centered approach. We desire them to grow with
the school, involved in and excited about the journey. We aim to
help them to follow biblical principles in addressing concerns, to
be inclined to hearing both sides of a story before rendering a
verdict, and to embrace the Scripture's injunctions to encourage
and stir up one another to love and good works.
Finally, in our relationship with our community, we aim to be
above reproach in our business dealings and supportive of the local
business community. We further seek to exemplify the unity of the
body of Christ, to develop greater fellowship and understanding
with the churches, and to bring honor to our Lord in all our
endeavors.
"If we work upon marble, it will perish; if on brass, time will
efface it; if we rear temples, they will crumble into dust; but if
we work upon immortal minds, and imbue them with principles, with
the just fear of God and love of our fellow men, we engrave on
those tablets something that will brighten to all enternity." S. F.
Scovel
"To know the laws of God in nature and revelation, and then to
fashion the affections and will into harmony with those laws - this
is education." Daniel Webster
