Mission & Philosophy

Our Mission
Myrtle Grove Christian School’s mission is that all students exemplify biblical principles, godly character and academic skills to be life-long learners and productive citizens as they serve Jesus Christ.

Our Philosophy
Myrtle Grove Christian School believes that God has lovingly called each of us as His children to a saving relationship with Jesus Christ. He has called us to help our students grow in wisdom and understanding in this relationship in every area of their lives. Each child is a special gift of God, with unique mental, physical and spiritual abilities. These characteristics need to be acknowledged in the classroom. Every student should be challenged to use his/her gifts of intellect to the maximum degree according to age level and ability. (Ephesians 4:11 & 12)

Only as the home, the church and the school come under the authority of God will children develop their potential to the greatest degree. Myrtle Grove Christian School is to be a partner with families. We will endeavor to assist students in guiding their development both academically and spiritually. By assisting the home, we are following God's commandment to ". . . bring them (children) up in the training and instruction of the Lord." (Ephesians 6:4)
 
As Christian educators, we are called to model Christ before our students. "A student is not above his teacher, but everyone who is fully trained will be like his teacher." (Luke 6:40) The hope of our world resides in the lordship of Jesus Christ. Myrtle Grove Christian School is called to assist our children in taking that hope to the unsaved world. "We will tell the next generation the praiseworthy deeds of the Lord, His power, the wonders He has done…so the next generation would know them. Then they would put their trust in God and would not forget His deeds but would keep His commands." (Psalms 78:4, 6a, 7)
