Goals and Skills
One of the primary goals as a school is to help the students to
be the persons God has called them to be today, this year, and forever.
Students, teachers, and parents work together, remembering that God
is our strength, Jesus is our Master Teacher, and the Holy Spirit
is our Helper.
This “school without walls” has proven
to be the context where teachers and students can develop a close
and meaningful relationship despite being geographically far apart.
Students enjoy learning, making friends with their classmates, and
building a Christ-like character. The personal discipline gained
from this program aids students in their personal lives as they learn
how to serve God and their fellow men.
Students learn intrapersonal skills as they seek to understand themselves
and their feelings. They learn how to build and practice self-control
and discipline, and to learn from experience.
Students practice interpersonal skills, such as developing friendships
through communication, cooperation, negotiation, sharing, empathizing,
and listening.
Students respond to the limits of everyday life with responsibility,
adaptability, flexibility, and integrity.
Students practice good judgment, as they use wisdom, evaluate situations,
and make decisions based on appropriate values.
