What FVL Schools Teaches and Why |
Guiding Principles
Spiritual
- God’s Word revealed to us in the Bible is the only source of absolute truth. We pray the students will grow in their understanding of God’s Word and apply it throughout their lives. John 17:17, “Your Word is truth.”
- As a result of our sinful nature, we are in need of a Savior as Romans 3:23 states, “All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.”
- We have the comfort of knowing God has forgiven us through Jesus. I John 2:2, “He is the atoning sacrifice for our sins, and not only for ours but also for the sins of the whole world.”
- We will actively support parents in their God-given role of teaching Christian principles to their children.
Academic
- God has blessed each one of us with different gifts as Romans 12:6 says, “We have different gifts, according to the grace given us.”
- We will create a dynamic learning experience in all areas of the curriculum that prepares children to meet the challenges in our world today.
- The students will see the wonder of God not only in religion, but throughout the curriculum as II Timothy 3:16 says, “All scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness.”
Social
- Everyone will have respect for each other in all settings.
- We will strive to cultivate a desire in all to live a life of service to their Lord.
- We all have a role and responsibility to live as Christian citizens.
