Royal Point Academy's purpose for existing as a Christian school is to educate children in all disciplines from Biblical worked view in order to prepare them to live according to God's design with regard to the specific gifting He has bestowed upon each of us.
Home and School Responsibility:
Deuteronomy 6:7
"And thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children, and shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up."
Since the primary reason for the existence of the school is a spiritual ministry, evangelistic efforts are made to bring all students to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ so that the teaching of spiritual truths may have a firm foundation. This is followed by instruction in right thinking, good conduct, and clean living in the light of the principles of God's Word.
Isaiah 11:
Jesus, the Master teacher, has enabled us by the Holy Spirit to impart wisdom of the Lord in all aspects of life: spiritually, physically, socially, and academically. He is the source of learning whether it is in math, language arts, sciences, social studies or any other discipline.
The academic program, through the traditional approach, is developed to provide students with the best possible program of studies. There is emphasis on the mastery of the fundamental blocks of material necessary for satisfactory achievement in these areas. Methods of teaching proven to be effective are utilized with a constant search for better methods. Realizing the differences in innate ability, we encourage and expect each student to do his best. We believe the traditional system of education educates the mind and builds character. It encourages competition and teaches the value of living under a free enterprise system of government.
Character training is an important element in Royal Point Academy. We believe that the heart of character training is obedience (deciding to do right), which will eventually cultivate an inner self-discipline and is essential to the emotional, physical, social, and spiritual well being of the student. The teacher is authority in the classroom. Discipline is administrated firmly but fairly. To obey, to do right, to love God, and to always measure one's attitudes against the principles laid out in the Scriptures, are characteristics we strive to instill in each student, thus equipping them for their role in God's plan for their life and for their proper place in society.
