Philosophy & Purpose

Tulare Christian School is an independent, non-denominational, parent-sponsored Christian school.

We believe a Christian school should have high academic standards, with each student being a good steward of the abilities God has given him. However, of greater importance is the spiritual growth of each child. If we educate only the mind and neglect the spiritual, we have failed. If we take care of the child's spiritual well-being, the academic falls right into line. The Bible, in a Christian school, is not just a subject, like reading or math. It should be the foundation of all learning. The application of God's Word should be emphasized. Students in a Christian school should show evidence of biblical teaching in their lives by the testimony of how they act in school and outside of the school setting.

The Christian school should be a training ground for young people, teaching them to live their lives for Christ in this world without conforming to the standards of the world. We do not exclude people who do not hold these same beliefs, but we do require that they acknowledge this to be the position of the school. By placing children in Tulare Christian School, the parents agree to allow them to be taught according to the beliefs and standards we have and not to contradict those beliefs at home.

The school does not take this responsibility from the Christian family, but rather works closely with the family toward meeting the goals for their children. We provide the student the opportunity for prayer, Bible study, scripture memorization, weekly chapel, Christian missions, Christian example and leadership, Christian character and conduct, Christian attitude and behavior, along with basic academic studies.

Educationally, the Christian school should adhere to sound time-tested teaching methods, such as phonics, math drills, etc. New fashionable, trendy ideas in education should be viewed very cautiously and examined in the light of God's word.

We welcome people from all racial backgrounds who desire a quality Christian education, and we admit English-speaking students of any race and national or ethnic group.
