Today’s parents face many options when it comes to choosing a school for their children.  This can be an overwhelming and intimidating experience, especially knowing the decision they make will have a profound impact on their children’s future.

Many Christian parents entertain the idea of sending their children to a Christian school.  Here are three compelling reasons to consider doing so.

Christian schools:

1. Support the Development of a Strong Spiritual Foundation

Christian schools offer a Christ-centered learning environment and are committed to achieving educational goals grounded in biblical truth.  This type of education can provide the framework to help children discover and understand the truth about the world around them, equip them to address the issues from a Christian perspective and prepare them for effective lives of service for God’s kingdom.  

2. Offer a Bible-Centered Curriculum

Christian education encompasses more than simply the study of the Bible or religion.  Since all truth is God’s truth, a genuine Christian education involves the integration of God’s word into every area of study and in all activities.

A Christian school integrates God’s word into every facet of the curriculum and in every subject, from science and math to language arts and history.  In addition, Christian school teachers and staff strive to develop godly character in their students to help them meet their responsibilities in life, keeping God’s Word front and center throughout the process.

3. Provide the Support of a Christian Community

In a Christian school, parents will find like-minded believers who share their values and who can partner with them and serve as godly role models for their children.  These individuals are able to openly teach the truths of Scripture as well as demonstrate and model Christian principles.

In addition to encouraging a partnership between parents and Christian teachers, Christian schools offer an environment in which families and other community members with shared values can come together to support and encourage one another.

As a community, parents, teachers, fellow students and other supporters can work together to positively influence one another and help reinforce and uphold the values parents are teaching at home.
