APPLICATION
OF PHILOSOPHY
All educational goals
and objectives developed for the students attending Tri-unity
Christian School, along with the programs and activities it
offers, will be evaluated in light of the philosophy
statement. |
EDUCATIONAL
PHILOSOPHY
How
do we do it? Our philosophy of education begins with the
understanding that the Christian school's role is to provide
an education that helps prepare its students for a life of
service to God and to others. Christian education,
therefore, becomes a process by which a believing student is
being conformed to Christ-likeness and fitted for service in
God's Kingdom.
To carry this out,
Tri-unity Christian School has adopted a philosophy consisting
of Three Basic Statements.
STATEMENT
1
God is the very
nature and source of all truth. The Holy Bible, in which
God has revealed Himself, is the foundation for all learning a
Tri-unity Christian School. We, therefore, endeavor to teach
about life, reality, truth, and values form a biblical
viewpoint, giving God pre-eminence rather than man (Romans
11:36, Colossians 1:15-18, II Timothy 3:14-17)
STATEMENT
2
The primary
responsibility for educating children rests upon the parents
in accordance with the Word of God. Because the school is
an extension of the home, its authority is delegated by the
parents. Teachers stand en loco parentis
("in the place of the parent") during the school
day. (Deuteronomy 4:9-10, 6:6-7, Psalms 78:4-7, Proverbs
22:6, Matthew 28:19-20, Ephesians 6:4).
STATEMENT
3
We
endeavor to develop in the students a thoroughly Christian
world and life view. This view will govern their
lives and enable them to relate the Christian faith to daily
life decisions. Conformity to the image of Christ,
fellowship with God, the development of Christian character,
the desire for a life-long pursuit of knowledge and wisdom,
and personal excellence in all areas will be emphasized at
Tri-unity Christian School (Proverbs 4:5-7, Luke 2:52,
Ephesians 4:11-16, Philippians 3:12-14). |
