Brown County Christian Academy has two defining educational characteristics.
We are Christian and we are Classical.
We are Christian and we are Classical.
As a Christian School we mean that our education is
CHRIST-CENTERED: True learning begins with acknowledging that all things have been created by and for Christ (Col. 1:17). He is not confined to our daily chapel service and Bible classes. He is at the core of everything we teach. It is a deliberate approach to see Christ ruling over every thought, every idea, every subject, whether physics or phys-ed. We learn about the depravity of man while reading classic literature. We discover God's beauty reflected in the symmetry of an algebraic equation. We perceive God's wisdom in the geometrical proportionality found within the harmonies of music and the movements of the planets. We learn about His character and creativity through the Fibonacci sequence found in both flowers and galaxies. |
As a Classical School we mean that our education is
CLASSICALLY INFLUENCED: Classical Education is about who we become, not simply what we know. It is a time-tested approach to education that is rooted in history. It begins with fundamental truth that In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth (Genesis 1:1). When we look into the eyes of every child, we don’t simply see a student, but a person divinely created for a purpose. Therefore, our education is focused on much more than preparing the students for worldly success. It is designed to be training of the mind, body, and spirit for a well-ordered life, aiming towards participation in the Kingdom of God. |
