/files/Images/id000004.jpgWelcome to the Emmanuel Christian School Website. We encourage you to investigate us fully. If you are looking for a great school for your young person or looking for a great school in which to work we believe you will find no better option. We would love for you to consider us and look forward to including you into the family called ECS.  Emmanuel Christian School is a vital and important ministry of Emmanuel Baptist Church. We are the Church at work during the week.

 

Emmanuel Christian School has a rich heritage of educational choices for her families. Emmanuel Christian School is dedicated to the glory of God and is founded on the belief that God is the source of all truth as revealed in the Person of Jesus Christ.  Emmanuel Christian School partners with parents/guardians in preparing their children for life as Christian servant-leaders, who choose character before career, wisdom beyond scholarship, service above self, and a lifestyle of participation over apathy, in order for them to impact the world for Christ for eternity. All areas of learning (spiritual, academic, physical, and social) are taught from the biblically based belief that truth is revealed in the Word of God.  The Bible is preeminent in all subject areas.

 

ECS regards the training of children as primarily the function of the home. ECS believes that the Christian school and the Bible-believing church should work together with the home to provide a fully integrated program for the purpose of developing Christian personalities.

 

Students are recognized and treated as individuals with different levels of development at ECS. They are given the opportunity to express their creativity and are encouraged to develop their abilities, skills, and insights within a biblical perspective so that they may effectively interact as Christians with the world around them.

 

It is crucial that we train students, in partnership with families, to think, live, love and lead as Christians in today’s society.  It is for this purpose that Emmanuel Christian School exists.  It is our driving passion to provide:

 

                Challenges -- to dream great dreams,               Wisdom -- to make right decisions,

                Discipline -- to build strong character,            Confidence -- in an uncertain world,

                Strength -- to face adversity,                            Acceptance -- unconditionally, and

                                                                                                Freedom -- to be useful to God

 

A Christian school cannot take the place of the home or the Church.  The fundamental teaching of responsibility and accountability and the model for Christian living is the job of the home.  The church is the worship center and the main means of communicating God's attributes.  The School is to educate and to prepare for life.  The three major influences in the lives of our young people must compliment one another, not contradict one another.  "A cord of three strands is not easily broken." Ecclesiastes 4:12

 

We are committed to loving the child while providing sound, quality education that is well grounded in traditional Christian values.

 

Some distinctives of Emmanuel Christian School include:

Ø                      Committed Christian teachers who instruct students to apply biblical principles to every aspect of daily living, thus encouraging them to live Christ-like lives.

Ø                      United faculty and staff who begin each school morning together in Bible study and prayer.

Ø                      Teachers who teach that all knowledge comes from God and each subject is to be viewed from a biblical perspective.

Ø                      Teachers committed to assisting each student in developing biblically based thinking and reasoning skills, which will enable the student to obtain sound personal convictions.

 

It will be an honor and a privilege for us to join with you in the Christian education of your child or join with you as we educate the next generation of godly leaders.
