The purpose of F.D. Reese Christian Academy is to encourage Christ likeness in every student. To accomplish this purpose we want to provide conditions whereby boys and girls can receive the truth of God’s Word to develop Christ-like attitudes and actions. Jesus instructed His disciples in John 8:32, “And you will know the truth, and the truth will make you free,” Not only is it our objective to teach the truth, but also to teach our students how to apply the truth wisely to their own lives. In John 16:13 we are promised that “when He, the Spirit of truth, comes, He will guide you into all the truth.”
Our Christian school has the responsibility to provide the best possible education. A Biblical worldview in the vital areas of life, spiritual growth, education, personal self-discipline, and patriotism, must be strongly stressed to each student during his years of training. We desire to minister to the needs of the whole child and to promote his spiritual and moral growth, academic and intellectual progress, and physical and social development. Additionally, our Christian school is to be an extension of the Christian home and church, and thus provide a continuity of training for Christian young people. We, as Christian educators, desire to train each student to accept individual responsibility to God for his actions and to challenge him to glorify God in every facet of his life. |
