Mission Statement
St. Cloud Christian School exists in
partnership with Christian families and churches to assist each student
to grow in excellence spiritually, academically, socially, and
physically.
Statement of Philosophy
St. Cloud Christian School was established in
1979 to assist Christian parents in their God-given responsibilities to
provide nurture, training, discipline, and instruction to their
children. (Ephesians 6:4, Proverbs 22:6, Deuteronomy 6:7). We desire
to build up the body of Christ by helping to equip its youngest members
for service through the knowledge of the Son of God and through faith
(Ephesians 4:12-13). In this regard, we recognize that each child has
unique gifts and abilities given to him/her by God, and we desire to
help each one in the positive expression and stewardship of these
talents (Romans 12:4-6).
We believe that education involves
both the learning and practice of truth. We also believe God’s Word is
true when it states that Jesus is the Way, the Truth and the Life (John
14:6). Therefore, we present Christ as our example in both conduct and
character, and in His desire to know and to do the will of the Father
for the glory of God. We desire of every child that, like Jesus, s/he
will grow and become strong in spirit, filled with wisdom, with “the
grace of God upon him.” (Luke 2:40).
We strive to develop Christ-like character, conduct and service through
principals based on scriptural truth, bringing glory to God.
We seek to accomplish this by:
- Training our students in applying biblical faith to their lives,
to enable them to lead their lives as full, responsible and effective
Christians.
- Teaching Christianity as a way of life.
- Instructing students on how to serve Jesus in thought, word and
deed.
- Participating in missions and community service.
- Helping our students to grow in positive self-esteem, respect and
good citizenship.
- Seeking God's perspective in every circumstance.
- Presenting Christ as our role model in conduct and character
