“Living Curriculum” Teachers
A CHA education includes a rigorous and comprehensive curriculum. However, it is the school’s “Living Curriculum” teachers that make the student experience both academically excellent and spiritually formative, as students enjoy the freedom to explore and learn in a nurturing, Christ-centered environment. At every level students are challenged to consider the question, “What does God’s Word mean in my life?” Our articulate, mature Christian teachers both teach and model critical and biblical thinking, passion for God’s Word, and impacting the school, community, and world for the glory of God.
Three-Way Partnership
Christian Heritage Academy seeks to come alongside Christian parents and the church to build into the lives of the next generation of believers. By providing an educational experience consistent with the biblical values that are taught in both the home and at church, a three-way partnership among home, church, and school is created. CHA is continuing to develop relationships with pastors and youth leaders at local churches to offer resources and support.
Biblically-Based Education
The Bible gives clear guidance for parents on how their children should be taught. They are to be consistently raised in the training and instruction of the Lord (Eph:6-4), growing in wisdom and knowledge in Christ. One of our founding parents, Dr. Wayne Grudem, PhD, wrote an excellent article highlighting scripture that parents should consider when making educational decisions for their children. We encourage you to read Biblical Reasons… by Dr. Grudem.
