Rooted in Partnership
After gathering with other Christian schools across the state, I was reminded how special Christian education is to each entity. It is easy to fall into the trap of what is around us and on social media and treat UCS like any other school, but Unity Christian is defined by its covenantal relationship. This relationship is the foundation for student growth built on three integral parts: home, church, and school.
-
Home (parents): The primary source of education, establishing a biblical foundation and setting standards for behavior and academics.
-
Church: Instructs members in faith and obedience, providing a community for worship and fellowship.
-
School: Reinforces the teachings of the home and church, revealing God’s truth through all subjects and activities.
At UCS, we partner with families for a life of discipleship. The school does not replace the home or church, rather we partner with both to continue training a child in the way he/she should go. Like a three-legged stool, success requires all three parts—home, church, and school—working together as one. I challenge each of us reading this to consider our part and how we can embrace the duty entrusted to us.
For HIS Glory,
