About EGA

 

Mission Statement

Eden Grove Academy is a Christ-centered school that exists to facilitate transformational learning and the development of a Christian worldview by serving diverse students through academics, character development, athletics, and the arts.

Statement of Faith

  1.  We believe the Bible is the inspired and infallible, authoritative Word of God.

  2. We believe there is one God, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

  3. We believe in the Deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His vicarious and atoning death, in His resurrection from the dead, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and in His personal return in power and glory.

  4. We believe that the regeneration by the Holy Spirit is essential for the salvation of lost and sinful people; that we are justified on the single ground of faith in the shed blood of Jesus Christ.

  5. We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit by whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a Godly life.

  6. We believe in the spiritual unity of believers in Jesus Christ. 

Philosophy of Education

  1. All content will be taught from a Biblical perspective with the purpose of developing a Christian worldview.

  2. The classroom is first of all Christ-centered, secondly student-centered, and thirdly teacher-centered; the teacher must discover how each student learns best based on how God has uniquely designed them.

  3. Learning is not based solely on a published curriculum but through an interaction of teacher, student, parent, and curriculum guidelines.

  4. All children want to learn and are capable of learning. With the support of the home, it is the teacher’s role to facilitate the learning process for each child.

  5. Learning should extend beyond the academic subjects into community service in and out of the classroom giving children an opportunity to learn how to serve the world around them through the love of Jesus Christ.
