Educational Philosophy

Vision

The only reason we exist is to serve the Lord Jesus Christ and the families He sends us.

Mission

To provide a Christ-centered education that prepares our students spiritually, academically, socially, and physically for the life's work that God gives them. (Luke 2:52)

As a ministry of the Temple Baptist Church, we believe that we exist as an extension of the church and to seek to promote the same directives that Christ gave to His church which is:

• To disciple believers so that they might serve their Lord more effectively in all vocations of life.
• To reach out to those in need of a living faith by sharing Christ with them both verbally and by our Christ like example.
• That parents might be helped in carrying out their God-given responsibility of training their children in the knowledge of God. (Deuteronomy 6:6-7; Proverbs 22:6; Ephesians 6:4)
• That our children might come to an understanding and appreciation of our responsibilities, rights, and freedoms as citizens of the United States of America.
• That our children be prepared spiritually and academically for life, that is, that they receive a solid foundation for life in the basic academic subjects such as reading, mathematics, grammar, science, and social studies; and that they understand these subjects in the light of God's Word.
• That our children develop, understand, and appreciate good music, art, and literature; and that they recognize and reject that which is evil and degrading. (Philippians 4:8)
• That our children understand that their bodies are the temple of the Holy Spirit. They shall be developed in a balanced program of physical education. Our school's team will be taught that winning is fun, and every effort will be made to win every game. Winning a game, however, is not as important as having a good Christian testimony. (I Timothy 4:8; I Corinthians 9:24-27)
• To work with the students in cooperation with their parents, to help them learn self-discipline under the direction of God's Word. Our approach is to teach right from wrong by providing moral guidelines and boundaries.
