Investing in Your Child’s Future: Why a Christian School Might Be the Right Choice
As parents, we’re constantly seeking the best for our children. We want them to thrive academically, emotionally, and spiritually, and we’re always looking for environments that will nurture their growth. If you’re exploring educational options, consider the unique advantages a Christian school can offer.
At Big Valley Christian School, we understand that education is more than just academics. It’s about developing the whole child – mind, body, and spirit. Our Statement of Educational Purpose reflects this commitment: to provide a secure and challenging environment that fosters the physical, cognitive, social, emotional, and spiritual development of each student.
Building a Foundation on Biblical Truth
Our Statement of Educational Philosophy is rooted in the belief that the Bible is the cornerstone of all education. It’s not just a subject; it’s the unifying framework that shapes our entire curriculum. We believe that parents are the primary educators, and we partner with families and churches to instill moral strength, spiritual insight, and academic integrity in our students. We aim to equip them to live as responsible citizens and effective Christians.
The Whole Child
Our Statement of Educational Goals mirrors the growth of Jesus Christ, as described in Luke 2:52: “And Jesus kept increasing in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and men.” We focus on developing students in four key areas:
- Spiritually: We nurture a deep and personal relationship with God, helping students understand and apply biblical principles to their lives.
- Mentally: We provide a rigorous academic program that challenges students to think critically, solve problems, and achieve their full potential.
- Socially: We foster a caring and supportive community where students learn to build healthy relationships, respect others, and serve their community.
- Physically: We promote healthy habits and physical activity, recognizing the importance of well-being for overall development.
