Statement of Philosophy

The Board of Trustees, Administration, Faculty and Staff of Midland Christian School believe that Christianity promotes the highest ideals, develops the strongest character, and holds the greatest promise of any way of life.  The entire program of Midland Christian School centers around Biblical principles that govern Christianity.  Therefore, our emphasis is to provide education in a wholesome spiritual environment under teachers with highest Christian ideals.  We believe this is best accomplished when the church, the home and the school work together.

These guiding principles are incorporated into a curriculum designed to teach the WHOLE child -  morally, intellectually, physically, spiritually, and socially.  These goals are achieved by helping each student attain academic excellence, physical soundness, high moral standards and civic responsibility.  The educational program will be planned to meet the varying and diversified needs, interests, and abilities of students.  A statement attributed to James Monroe perhaps sums up the philosophy of Midland Christian School.  "The question to be asked at the end of an educational step is not what has the child learned, but what has the child become."

This philosophy shall apply to every student who qualifies for admission regardless 
of  race, color, religion, sex, handicap and/or national origin.
