Our Philosophy of Education

True knowledge that is lasting and valuable begins with a right relationship with the living God, as stated in Proverbs 1:7, ” The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and instruction.”As a Christian school, we are committed to the following: As a private school, Ebenezer Christian Academy is based and operated upon the following statements of principle:

• The acknowledgement of God as Creator, the Source of all truth, and the Sustainer of all things.
• True education has Jesus Christ as the center and depends on the Holy Spirit to illuminate and guide.
• The Bible is God’s written word and revelation to mankind.
• Education is a Biblically integrated process of developing students spiritually, academically, physically, socially, and emotionally.
• Utilizing a traditional approach to education, students gain knowledge and understanding through revelation, reason, experience, and investigation.
• Through the cooperative interaction of the home, the church and the academy students cultivate a self-discipline enabling them to live as responsible citizens and effective Christians.
• The role of the Christian faculty is to stimulate learning that will equip students with the tools necessary to internalize learning and to encourage students to fulfill their divine destiny.

One of the basic reasons why parents enrolled their kids in private schools, especially christian or religious schools, is because they want a good and founded education for their kids.

Ebenezer Christian Academy uses the School of Tomorrow biblically based curriculum, which includes scriptures, passages, and verses from the Bible to refer to God and his son Jesus Christ. It is also designed to prepare children spiritually by instilling in them a love for God the Father, the Lord Jesus Christ, and His Holy Spirit, and a personal sense of responsibility to fulfill their divine destiny.

Based on these principles, ECA recognizes that God has ordained that the parent be the primary educator of the child; therefore, the school will act in partnership with the parent in the educational process. The foundation for successful education, fine arts, character-building athletics, etc., begins with an accurate understanding of God as initially instilled by the parent and reinforced by the local church. While some parents have chosen to take on this responsibility personally through homeschooling, others recognize a need for greater assistance in the task of educating their son or daughter, especially in a highly competitive academic market. Ebenezer Christian Academy seeks to fulfill that need by providing excellence in academics, fine arts, and athletics while instilling a biblical worldview.
