School Philosophy
|
-
     The Laurel Christian School takes a spiritual approach to education.  LCS is an extension of the Christian home and strives to encourage, support, and inspire students and families in a system of values consistent with the Word of God.  It is our philosophy that students should have a Christ-centered view of the world, mankind, and life.
-      This means that the entire program, the curriculum, the quality of teachers, the school policies, the methods, and the evaluation procedures will be based on a genuine committment to the Christian faith and will be reflected in the way in which the task of education is carried out.  LCS is dedicated to academic excellence in a disciplined atmosphere.
-      The purpose of LCS is to develop children both spiritually and academically so that they will be able to accept the responsibilities of life as committed Christians doing "all to the glory of God." (1Cor. 10:31)

-      This handbook provides a clear, concise statement of the basic policies, procedures, and philosophy of Laurel Christian School.  These policies and procedures are formulated as one way to implement our goals in Christian education as well as to provide for a safe, efficient, and consistent approach to education.
-      Commitment to these policies and procedures by students, parents, and staff will enable the school to run on a smooth, orderly basis.  Consistent support of them, however, will produce even more significant and lasting accomplishments for students.  We believe that Christian education involves encouraging and training students for responsible action.  These policies and procedures are basic guidelines which should be viewed as one way LCS encourages and trains students to recognize and assume responsibility for their actions.  Therefore; the ultimate purpose of this handbook is to allow parents, students, and teachers to be "of one mind" in the great priviledge we have of training children to honor God with their whole lives.
