Academic Philosophy

Partnership in Academic Excellence and Spiritual Growth

Evergreen Christian School partners with parents to prepare and develop the whole student: mind, body, and spirit through excellence in academic training that is interwoven with biblical, faith-based teaching.

Critical reasoning and effective communication (1 Peter 3:15) are essential to our students’ calling as stewards of God’s gifts and as ambassadors to the world. As salt and light (Matthew 5:13-16), their purpose is to engage the present culture by bringing understanding, preservation, and healing to the world.

We believe that the spiritual aspect of life is integrated into all aspects of learning and life-skills. In order for students to gain a comprehensive education, all materials must be presented with spiritual and academic truth, and biblical worldview. Learners must be taught how to use their knowledge and skills in this world in order to serve others and create new ideas and answers for our world. Through this perspective, students will gain self-confidence enabling them to achieve all that God has purposed for their lives.

Biblical Worldview

Our goal is to convey a worldview to our students that includes a biblical understanding of God, themselves, their neighbors, and the world that God has made. Such a worldview is both cohesive and integrated because it relates all knowledge to God and accepts the reality of transcendent truth fully revealed in the person and work of Jesus Christ.

Our task is to think God’s thoughts after Him and to view all facts as God-made and therefore revelatory of the mind of God. Education is an act of worship. No idea, concept or subject matter can be fully grasped unless it is related to the God who created it (Colossians 1:16-17).

This biblical worldview, the lives and devotion of our staff, the pursuit of excellence across our educational programs, and the commitment of our students will serve to create a unique environment for teaching and learning.
