The philosophy of Christian education at Friends Christian School is based upon the existence of a living God Who created all things and has revealed Himself to us. The revelation has come through the written Word, the Bible, and through the living Word, Jesus Christ, and through creation.
The Bible is the inspired, infallible, and authoritative Word of God. Jesus Christ is the central theme of history and is the central authority of what men say, do or believe. Man was created in God’s image, but that image was ruined at the fall when man chose to sin against God. God provided a way of redemption for man through the incarnation, death, and resurrection of His Son, Jesus Christ. A regenerated person receives the Holy Spirit to guide him into all truth.
The education at Friends Christian School is God-centered and seeks to view life in every dimension as God sees it. All educational goals and objectives are found within the Bible, among which are glorifying God, reaching the lost, and training and maturing individual believers.
All members of the educational experience at Friends Christian School are personally committed to Jesus Christ. We believe that the educational experience cannot truly take place apart from the ministry of the Holy Spirit. We believe that proper relationships among family, church, and school are essential to Christian education. Friends Christian School, as a ministry of the church, is an extension of the educational process of the home.
The education offered at Friends Christian School is designed to meet the student on his/her level of development and growth. We strive to instill the proper priorities of life, the first being individual commitment to Jesus Christ. The educators at Friends Christian School are committed to these basic principles and communicate them effectively.
