Four Reasons you should consider sending your child to a Christian School:
Your Child Has Spiritual Needs. Often the last need considered, the spiritual need is central in the life of a child. Your child needs to realize there is a center to all of life. God's truth is THE Truth. It is central to all of learning and all of living. Christian Education seeks to meet this need by making the Bible central. Modern secular education omits this MOST vital center to all of learning and living.
Your Child Has Academic Needs. Your child has a God-given compulsive drive to learn. He wants to know the what and why of everything. A proper challenge in education is important. Careful planning for a well-balanced academic program is necessary. What a child learns is of vital importance. How he is taught is often the difference between effective learning and frustrated defeat. Providing a Christian Curriculum gives a right foundation in your child's life experience and learning environment.
Your Child Has Social and Emotional Needs. Your child's emotional and social growth is of vital importance. He needs to be able to overcome or avoid feelings of inferiority and frustration. Healthy emotional and social growth needs encouragement - encouragement from parents, teachers and friends. A right spiritual relationship with God can help the child avoid emotional problems and develop meaningful relationships with others.
Your Child Has Physical Needs. We often forget that a child's physical maturation directly affects all other areas of growth. Therefore, daily physical activity, periodic health examinations, muscle-building exercise, and time to run and play are necessary parts of any family or school routine. A child needs daily encouragement in good habits of livingin order to promote healthy growth and activity. Self-discipline and wholesome directed play helps provide the physical and mental exercise needed for healthy growth.
